??\u00a0Yesterday, 27-07, the group of Triacastela explored another way of Camino.
\nWe walked around 12 km there and back from our village to San Xil trying our best to identify and report the less accessible places. We also collected trash on the way: all types of it, but mostly toilet paper in more hidden places in nature that pilgrims use as public toilets, which turns out to be the biggest problem on the Camino.
\nIt is interesting because overall people seem to care about nature and we don’t exactly find that much trash, but when it comes to toilet paper, people suddenly forget about it.
\nIs it because they don’t know the length of time it takes for the paper to degrade?
\nDo they think it’s “biodegradable” so it’s okay to throw it in nature? That might be the case, but that doesn’t take into account the effect it has on other people walking in the forest and seeing toilet paper. It’s not being considerate of the visual and more practical environmental side of things. So really it seems that it’s because of their own convenience: they simply don’t want to carry their own dirty toilet papers. They might justify it to themselves by saying that it’s “biodegradable”.<\/span><\/p>\n

So what’s the solution? There are many possible ones.<\/p>\n

Install toilets? Maybe not so appropriate doing that in nature, as it would lead to more problems.<\/p>\n

Install garbage bins? Also maybe not be so appropriate in nature, as animals have a tendency to ravage them. Additionally, there were two garbage bins on the way, not enough but completely unused.
\nSo in the end it is because of the mindset of people.<\/p>\n

To bring about real change<\/strong>, we have to focus on transforming what’s inside of us, not outside. We have to raise people’s consciousness of the environment. We could do this by installing posters with clear information, such as the time it takes for toilet paper to decompose, and remember them the trash they produce doesn’t belong to the forest.
\nOur goal should be to invite pilgrims to feel like guests of the Earth and not the owner.\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

??\u00a0Ayer, 27-07, el grupo de Triacastela explor\u00f3 otro camino del Camino.<\/p>\n

Caminamos alrededor de 12 km de ida y vuelta desde nuestro pueblo hasta San Xil haciendo todo lo posible para identificar y reportar los lugares menos accesibles. Tambi\u00e9n recogimos basura en el camino: todo tipo de basura, pero sobre todo papel higi\u00e9nico en lugares m\u00e1s rec\u00f3nditos de la naturaleza que los peregrinos utilizan como ba\u00f1os p\u00fablicos, lo que resulta ser el mayor problema del Camino.<\/p>\n

Es interesante porque, en general, la gente parece preocuparse por la naturaleza y no encontramos exactamente tanta basura, pero cuando se trata de papel higi\u00e9nico, la gente de repente se olvida de \u00e9l.<\/p>\n

\u00bfEs porque no saben cu\u00e1nto tiempo tarda el papel en degradarse?<\/p>\n

\u00bfPiensan que es “biodegradable”, por lo que est\u00e1 bien tirarlo a la naturaleza? Ese podr\u00eda ser el caso, pero eso no tiene en cuenta el efecto que tiene en otras personas que caminan por el bosque y ven papel higi\u00e9nico. No es ser considerado con el lado visual y ambiental m\u00e1s pr\u00e1ctico de las cosas. As\u00ed que realmente parece que es por su propia conveniencia: simplemente no quieren llevar sus propios papeles higi\u00e9nicos sucios. Podr\u00edan justificarse a s\u00ed mismos diciendo que es “biodegradable”.<\/p>\n

Entonces, \u00bfcu\u00e1l es la soluci\u00f3n? Hay muchos posibles.<\/p>\n

\u00bfInstalar ba\u00f1os? Tal vez no sea tan apropiado hacer eso en la naturaleza, ya que generar\u00eda m\u00e1s problemas.<\/p>\n

\u00bfInstalar contenedores de basura? Adem\u00e1s, tal vez no sea tan apropiado en la naturaleza, ya que los animales tienden a devastarlos. Adem\u00e1s, hab\u00eda dos contenedores de basura en el camino, no suficientes pero completamente sin usar.<\/p>\n

As\u00ed que al final es por la mentalidad de la gente.<\/p>\n

Para generar un cambio real, debemos concentrarnos en transformar lo que est\u00e1 dentro de nosotros, no lo que est\u00e1 afuera. Tenemos que aumentar la conciencia de la gente sobre el medio ambiente. Podr\u00edamos hacerlo instalando carteles con informaci\u00f3n clara, como el tiempo que tarda en descomponerse el papel higi\u00e9nico, y recordarles que la basura que producen no pertenece al bosque.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
