Tenerife is one step closer to an ideal destination for sustainable travel with a ban on single-use plastic that’s expected to come into action from January 2021.
In fact, the Canary Islands will be the first region of Spain to ban the use of single-use plastic items. It’s a progressive step towards sustainability to help protect these unique and beautiful islands.
Your Tenerife packing list should include some everyday reusable items like a canvas shopping bag, stainless steel water bottle and reusable straws. Imagine how many plastic bags, water bottles and straws you’ll save from drifting into the ocean!
It’s fair to assume that most of us recycle at home. Though when on holiday you’re in a more carefree mindset so it’s easier to slack on those habits you swear by at home.
The guilt of chucking last night’s wine bottle in with the general waste is fair worse than making a tiny bit of effort to find the nearest glass recycling bin.
Recycling in Tenerife is super easy and accessible, and we’ll tell you exactly how to do it.
Look for 3 big refuse bins in green, yellow and blue. They’re usual together.
Green for glass. Yellow for plastic and tins. Blue for paper.
Easy.
