GUEVARA MARTINEZ, Javier. Human ecology and pro-environmental action: reciprocal otherness amongst the classroom, school and the community for sustainable waste management. rev.latinoam.psicol. [online]. 2013, vol.45, n.3, pp.447-457. ISSN 0120-0534.  https://doi.org/10.14349/rlp.v45i3.1486.

Abstract A cultural shift is observed which replaces the trash culture by a culture of collection and selected delivery of municipal solid waste. This research included 100 % of the population and the collective subjects are 397 academic groups of 60 schools, thereby bringing together a number of 397 (s) teachers and 8266 students. Thi paper strategically includes three environments: classroom, school, community, which reach the role of instrument from its environmental interconnections. The methodology considers the strategy of lewinian ecological experiments in order to empirically analyze interdependencies of contexts, interest for power environments (strength, position and power) in the relationship of students with their reality, thus inducing the direct connection of the environments, under a process of reciprocal, although asymmetric otherness. By means of the Ossgod Scale, which reports behavioral changes, the "hard data" is the meeting of 42% of differentiated waste, in a   American context of 3 to 6.
