Less Plastic Guide: Oaxaca coastal hotels and fisheries

Cut single-use plastic where tourism meets the Pacific On Oaxaca's Pacific coast, roughly two tonnes of plastic enter the sea daily where waste infrastructure is thin. GIZ (on behalf of the German Environment Ministry) works with municipalities, hotels, and fisheries through the Less Plastic Guide, practical alternatives to disposable products. Participating hotels cut plastic consumption by about one third; lessons feed Mexico's national circular-economy strategy. What you can do - Hoteliers and restaurants on the Oaxaca coast: request the Less Plastic Guide and audit single-use items room by room - Travellers: favour accommodations that publish plastic-reduction steps - Other coastal towns: replicate the tourism–fishery workshop model with your regional environment ministry How it works The guide lists swap-in products and awareness steps; PROCEP pilots improved separation and collection with local governments before plastic reaches rivers. Why it matters Tourism economies can shrink marine litter at the source, not only after beach clean-ups.
