On Wednesday January 8th CAMAR, Cozumel’s Centro de Acopio de Materiales Reciclables (recycling center), will close their program of collecting used electronics, household appliances and batteries. During that time, the program, which started in November 2013, has collected approximately nine tons of refuse. CAMAR is open Monday – Friday from 8am to 3 pm.
Kathy Watts, founder of the Trashy Little Group, who organizes a monthly beach clean-up, has been kind enough to take the time to compile a list of information about recycling resources here in Cozumel.
Consider also, attending or donating a prize for the beach clean ups. This completely volunteer program has collected over 1000 bags of garbage off our beaches in 2013, to find out more about how you can get involved, check out their group in facebook.
