Prohibition of disposables for food consumed in sit
In May 2018, we presented at the Deliberative Council of Ushuaia , a ban to prohibit the provision of disposables together with food to be consumed in the same place.
Later we presented the project once again as a popular initiative, signed by neighborhood supporting the project.
