The restaurant has been divided in two areas in order to facilitate its analysis. The first area is the administrative part that will be discussed in the second section of this dissertation. It is in this latter part where the erroneous environmental practices, which take place in the daily routine of the restaurant, will be identified. In the same manner and following the same scheme, the environmental problems that are being generated in the operative area will be identified in the third section of this investigation. Finally, we will give our critical point of view about the management of the daily activities of the restaurant. This will be done on the fourth part of this investigation. In addition to this constructive criticism, a manual for good environmental practices will be proposed. The objectives of this manual will be the lowering of environmental contamination and the conscientization of the employees about respect for nature.
