¿Quiere convertir su negocio en un Comerciante Pro-Ambiental de Coral Gables? Visite www.coralgables.com/greenbusiness o llame al 305-460-5008

En enero de 2019, la Ciudad de Coral Gables aprobó una ley que prohíbe el uso de los sorbetes y agitadores plásticos de bebidas de un solo uso en las instalaciones/parques de la Ciudad, por los contratistas de la Ciudad/proveedores y

por cualquier persona o entidades/subcontratistas que reciben un permiso de evento especial de la Ciudad. Esta ordenanza entra en rigor el 9 de julio del 2019, después de concluir una campaña educativa de seis meses.

¡Dé un Buen Ejemplo! No utilice voluntariamente los sorbetes y agitadores de plástico. ¿Porqué? Por que 5 minutos en su bebida puede significar 500 años en nuestro océano. Si no lo detenemos ahora, en el 2050 habrá más plástico dentro del océano que pescados.

Restaurantes, Cafeterías y Establecimientos de Comida en Coral Gables:

Use alternativas que no son de plástico y sólo ofrezca sorbetes si se lo piden. #PlasticFreeCG o Visite: www.coralgables.com/skipthestraw

Diga SI a las Alternativas

Si necesita un sorbete, use materiales reusables que no son de plástico, tales como:• Papel• Caña de azúcar• Bambú• Metal y otros materiales

pro-ambientales

Nota: Sorbetes/agitadores echos de petróleo compostable y biodegradable o basados biológicamente de polímero NO se consideran alternativas sostenibles.

Diga NO al PLASTICO*#PlasticFreeCG

• NO a sorbetes de PLASTICO para bebidas de un solo uso.

• NO a agitadores de PLASTICO para mezclar las bebidas de un solo uso.

• NO se permite en los edificios de la Ciudad, parques, campos de golf o cualquier otra propiedad de la Ciudad.

• NO se permite el uso por el contratista, subcontratista, proveedor, concesionario u operador de la Ciudad.

• NO se permite usar a ninguna persona, entidad o subcontratista que reciba un permiso de evento especial por la Ciudad.

*Se aplican ciertas excepciones, como las solicitudes de ADA, los eventos especiales para 100 personas o menos, o los sorbetes incluidos en las bebidas pre-empacadas.
