its environment.<\/p>\n<p>The ideas that are promoted to be included in this new law are<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reduce_packaging\"><\/span>Reduce packaging<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>In this way, <strong>the amount of waste that cannot be recycled or reused to make compost will be reduced<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Thus avoiding the additional cost that users must pay when ordering from a restaurant or take away service.<\/p>\n<p>The idea is to provide an alternative that allows products to be consumed at home <strong>without using containers that pollute the environment<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Increasing_the_supply_of_products_and_reusable_elements\"><\/span>Increasing the supply of products and reusable elements<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The idea is that the new waste law will guarantee and promote the manufacture of <strong>reusable products and packaging free of contaminating elements<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Making reusable products such as bottles and glass containers available to the catering sector.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Determining_obsolescence_and_facilitating_repair\"><\/span>Determining obsolescence and facilitating repair<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>By offering products with a shelf life that provides sustainable solutions and <strong>preventing the use of products that cannot be recycled or reused<\/strong>, including devices of programmed obsolescence.<\/p>\n<p>In this sense, it is also important to discuss the <strong>status of waste such as mattresses, furniture and textile waste<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Encouraging_the_return_of_packaging\"><\/span>Encouraging the return of packaging<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>For the new legislation, it is expected that a waste storage system will be set up to <strong>collect <\/strong><strong>used beverage containers from various businesses<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>This will allow the reuse and recycling of bottles, cans and tetrabrik; which -when not collected correctly- end up polluting the environment.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Activate_separate_waste_collection\"><\/span>Activate separate waste collection<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Separate collection of waste is <strong>another point that is expected to be part of the new legislation<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>To this end, the classification of organic matter is proposed to promote composting, favouring the regeneration of soils and the implementation of a successful model that will improve collection in containers.<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, other types of waste should be collected so <strong>that they can be directed to recycling or disposal plants in the correct<\/strong> way.<\/p>\n<h2><span
