The Green Ecologist Party of Mexico (PVEM) has promoted several environmental legislative and conservation initiatives. In Veracruz, Deputy Roxana Barragán Hernández introduced a bill to update the Sustainable Fishing and Aquaculture Law to combat “ghost fishing” caused by abandoned nets. The proposal aims to integrate prevention, recovery, and recycling into the State Program for Sustainable Fisheries to reduce marine pollution.

Nationally, the party has supported reforestation efforts in the State of Mexico and advocated for circular economy policies. This includes backing the implementation of the General Law of Circular Economy to address waste accumulation and supporting campaigns for the recycling and reuse of materials.
