According to municipal authorities, this figure corresponds to the work carried out over the last 12 months in an area that for years suffered the effects of excessive waste accumulation.
The massive waste removal has begun to yield positive results, favoring the gradual recovery of local flora and fauna.
However, with the support of systematic and ongoing cleanup efforts, some of the ecological damage has been reversed.
The authorities acknowledged that the success of these efforts would not be possible without the active collaboration of citizens, who have participated in multiple cleanup campaigns.
Coordinated work between the local government and civil society has been key to advancing the rehabilitation of these protected areas.
