Off course it would be unfair just to show you the nice and beautiful things about where I live. The poverty is huge and people make a life for themselves with whatever they can. These guys make a living by recycling paper - they go through dustbins and collect all the paper and cardboard which they transport on carts - either bought, sponsored by the paper companies, or made by themselves. Some also collect plastic, cans and glass. And don't be mistaken - some responsible people (like us and my office) do our own recycling. There is just so many who doesn't that at least these poor people can scrape by a living.
