The day before I went up to Mexico City last month, crossing Llano Park, I came across a newly installed waste container encouraging plastic recycling; courtesy of Tierra Sana, a company promoting and selling environmentally friendly products.
These baskets have cropped up in other parts of the city — this one in the plazuela next to Carmen Alto church. Please know, the trees will cry if you don’t recycle.
Once up in Mexico City, I noticed Occupy Coyoacán practiced recycling.
And then, we were all brought up short by this electric car…
These charging stations are not far from the Templo Mayor; an appropriate juxtaposition, I think. Automobile pollution can’t be good for the Great Temple.
Then there is bike-sharing — 1200 bikes at 90 Ecobici bike stations in Mexico’s capital city.

Really exciting to get your direct reports from Mexico City & the bike thing is absolutely thrilling.
I snapped that same container in El Llano in January, but at the time it had a different sign on it. ~?~ It’s here: http://anyportinastorm.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=ecology&thread=2525&page=2#128535 in posts 45 through 50.
Dear bee rescuer – especially loved the closeup looking inside the bin.
