Problems in Riobamba, Ecuador

The accumulation of garbage in the streets, parks, or corners can cause bad smells, attract rats and insects, and create health risks.

Many people don’t separate their waste, which makes recycling more difficult and pollutes the environment.

In neighborhoods where people don’t follow the garbage collection schedule, trash bags can break open and spread waste everywhere.

Possible solution:

Organize environmental education campaigns in the community.

Install more separate trash bins (organic/inorganic).

Promote local recycling programs and teach people how to sort waste correctly.

In my neighborhood (La Florida) there is currently a problem with mass crime since we currently do not have the necessary security in small and large neighborhoods and in sectors that are supposedly safe. This is a problem that has been growing over time and something should be done about it.

My solution to the problem would be to hold a meeting in all the neighborhoods to maintain constant surveillance in the sectors, as well as people prepared and ready to act in the event of a possible robbery.

Shelters and rescue organizations work tirelessly to provide care and find homes for these dogs, but the number of abandoned animals often overwhelms their resources. Addressing this problem requires a multi-faceted approach, including responsible pet ownership, spaying and neutering programs, and increased public awareness

In my neighborhood in Calderón, north of Quito, there is a big problem with trash, especially on Sundays after the market. People throw construction debris and unpleasant waste on the streets instead of using trash bins. They mix all types of garbage, which causes a bad smell and makes the area dirty. To solve this, the community could organize regular clean-up days and provide more trash bins around the market. Educating people about proper waste disposal and separating recyclables could also help keep the neighborhood clean and healthy.

Smoke, especially from cigarettes or industrial pollution, has serious consequences for both human health and the environment. It contains harmful chemicals that can damage the lungs, cause respiratory diseases like asthma or bronchitis, and increase the risk of heart disease and cancer. In the environment, smoke contributes to air pollution, which harms animals, plants, and contributes to climate change.

In my neighborhood Quitumbe, there is a big problem with noise on the main avenue. Every day, many cars and motorcycles drive very fast and make a lot of noise. This affects the people who live nearby because they cannot rest well, especially at night. One possible solution is to have more traffic officers to control the speed of the vehicles.

In many cities, streets are heavily polluted due to vehicle emissions, littering, and lack of proper waste disposal. This not only affects the environment but also harms people’s health, especially children and the elderly.

Possible Solution:

One effective solution is to promote the use of public transportation and bicycles instead of private cars. Additionally, implementing strict fines for littering and increasing the number of trash bins in public areas can help reduce waste on the streets. Public awareness campaigns can also educate people about the importance of keeping streets clean.
