Resumen
La presente investigación pretende analizar el impacto ambiental y económico del Ecuador debido a las políticas públicas implementadas por el Ministerio del Ambiente y el Ministerio de Economía Popular y Solidaria. En el Ecuador se genera cuatro millones de toneladas anuales de residuos sólidos y un millón puede ser reciclable como papel, cartón, plástico y chatarra. El gobierno ecuatoriano menciona que en el 2014 se logró recuperar 245000 millones de toneladas, correspondiente a una cuarta parte del potencial reciclable. A fines de 2011, Ecuador aprobó la Ley de Fomento Ambiental y Optimización de los Ingresos del Estado, que incluyó un impuesto redimible de US$ 0,02 centavos por unidad de las botellas plásticas no retornables, convirtiéndose en el país pionero en la aplicación de estos gravámenes sobre desechos en una región que sigue debatiéndose en las dudas sobre cómo crecer sin comprometer el frágil equilibrio natural. El propósito de la presente investigación se centra en determinar si el reciclaje de desechos contribuye al buen vivir mediante un análisis de la problemática en el tratamiento de dichos desechos para identificar las causas y buscar alternativas que contribuyan a reducir los índices de contaminación en el país
This research aims to analyze the environmental and economic impact of Ecuador due to public policies implemented by the Ministry of the Environment and the Ministry of Popular and Solidarity Economy. In Ecuador, four million tons of solid waste are generated annually and one million can be recycled as paper, cardboard, plastic and scrap. The Ecuadorian government mentions that in 2014 it was possible to recover 245 billion tons, corresponding to a quarter of the recyclable potential. At the end of 2011, Ecuador approved the Law on Environmental Promotion and Optimization of State Income, which included a redeemable tax of US $ 0.02 cents per unit of non-returnable plastic bottles, becoming the pioneer country in the application of These taxes on waste in a region that is still debated in the doubts about how to grow without compromising the fragile natural balance. The purpose of this research is to determine if the recycling of waste contributes to good living by analyzing the problems in the treatment of these wastes to identify the causes and find alternatives that contribute to reduce pollution rates in the country
