I think this idea looks very nice on paper. I live in Costa Rica and we promote our country as a natural paradise but the reality is that we live in a place that is filled with garbage and filthy rivers/streets and many companies -even hotels- contribute with pollution so I think a general garbage policy is better.

I assumed as much. It's one thing to set a goal and one to actually be able to live up to one. There is no doubt that we need to reduce the usage of plastic though.
EU made a silly rule to force stores to charge for plastic bags that you pack your groceries or cloths in, but they neglected the big thief in the whole game... the thin fruit bag that everyone use and just dispose in the garbage.
Plastic is here, but we should all try to use less of it and use alternatives when we can. Not always possible, but one step at the time and we can go a long way.

I think fines would work too.Give someone an $100 fine once, and you won't catch him/her leaving waste behind twice.
