Trash Removal in Puerto Rico

Puerto Rico’s trash removal system has been severely impacted by a combination of factors, including natural disasters, inadequate infrastructure, and lack of resources. The crisis has been ongoing for years, with significant consequences for the environment, public health, and local communities.

 

Landfill Capacity and Flooding

Most of Puerto Rico’s landfills fail to meet federal standards and are almost full. The lack of capacity has led to overflowing landfills, with trash spilling onto surrounding areas and contaminating soil and water sources. Flooding has exacerbated the problem, as heavy rainfall and storm surges inundate landfills, causing waste to mix with floodwaters and spread pollutants.

 

Inadequate Waste Management

Puerto Rico generates approximately 11,000 tons of waste daily, but only 11% is recycled, falling short of the mandated 35% recycling rate. This inadequate management has resulted in:

 

Uncovered trash piles, attracting pests and creating health hazards

Toxic emissions from decomposing waste, affecting air quality

Increased risk of fires in landfills, which can spread to surrounding areas

Hurricane-Related Debris

Recent hurricanes, such as Maria and Fiona, have dumped massive amounts of vegetative debris onto the island, overwhelming landfills and creating new waste management challenges. This debris, including tree branches and household items, has been dumped into already-full landfills or left on streets and roadsides.

 

Lack of Funding and Resources

Puerto Rico’s waste management system has been underfunded and understaffed for years, exacerbating the crisis. The island’s debt crisis and economic struggles have limited the availability of resources for waste management infrastructure upgrades and maintenance.

Stay clam folks.

Last few days of hard shill push.

Most will be gone after the election.

Too busy hiding, running, or doing back flips off of tall buildings.

And to all shills, if you plan to swan dive off a tall building, gopro it live for our kek enjoyment.

I sit back and watch this board like it's a Sat. morn fishing show.

I see the bait drop and anons scurry to bite.
