Recycling in India: A Tale of Unconventional Collectors
Instead of discarding bottles and jars like regular trash, many Indians leave them strewn across streets and sidewalks. Amidst this chaos, a team of collectors on a cart pulled by a donkey scour the streets for discarded bottles.
These diligent individuals collect as many bottles as they can carry and then some, often navigating the bustling metropolis streets with remarkable skill. Their efforts are rewarded with a modest 1 rupee for each bottle returned, contributing to recycling and highlighting the resilience and resourcefulness of those working to keep the environment clean in unconventional ways.
