Waste Management in Lodging Companies

This book reflects on tourism management and waste management (solid elements) in the canton of Puerto Quito, especially in some local lodging sites. It also allows determining the alternatives for environmental awareness and other activities that can be developed for better waste management, considering that Puerto Quito (province of Pichincha, Ecuador) has a diversity of relevant natural attractions: waterfalls, native tropical flora and fauna, places for extreme sports, as well as lodging sites with internal recreational elements, which could be affected if current waste management activities are not improved. We worked with three companies involved in tourism operations in the canton of Puerto Quito and the type of waste management they carry out.
