Gestión de Residuos Respel en Empresas

Abstract

For several decades the world has been facing a unique and also destructive pollution caused by hazardous waste, for the collective it is something more; Those who are not immersed in areas related to the environment and the like, only see products that are necessary for common use for life, for transportation, and necessary in agriculture. But who thinks about what happens after changing the oil in the car, replacing a light bulb in our home or when our computer has reached the end of its useful life? All this generates hazardous waste that, due to little or no information for consumers, becomes a danger to people and the environment. The generators of this waste try to make consumers responsible for the final destination of this waste, with labels on their products, but the truth is that, from a light bulb to a toxic agent, it is treated with the standards established by the different agreements or compendia on the management of RESPEL. For this reason, attempts have been made to introduce new regulations and strategies that can be more direct in environmental care, however, this is not an easy task since generators must train, implement and invest in everything that is needed to put a stop to the uncontrolled final management of the aforementioned waste. It is time for us to take caring for the planet seriously, taking into account that it is already showing us the damage that we have been doing to it because of our dedication.
