May 29th, 2019
Until last May 20 and according to a tour made by this portal, it was found that, the use of plastic bags by merchants and customers of the capital continues, despite the fact that since last February 5, the Municipal Toluca established a ban on giving away these highly polluting items.
According to Mario Villamares, in charge of the butcher shop "La Alianza" on Avenida Morelos, he said: "In this establishment we still give bags, but we have seen the need to take measures to make a habit of bringing their bags or toppers since we have added a cost of five pesos per bag "
However, the chain "OXXO", specifically the branch of the portals in the municipality still omits the rule on this input. This after words of Gabriela N., employee of the company, who said that they would continue giving bags "until further notice". She also concluded that the bags should not be given away, much less sold.
In fact, the employees of that firm have taken action in the matter, trying not to give any type of bags for the customer to form the habit of carrying their own or a container. He also revealed that they have had to face conflicts with some clients, because there is still someone who demands this article since the commercial chain has not yet issued any communication in which this agreement is official.
