Garbage City is part of Cairo's Orthodox Christian sector. One of the largest and oldest churches in Cairo is the Cave Church, actually built into the side of a cliff. Garbage City is next to it and it's residence spend their lives sorting through garbage. They collect it from the rest of the city, sort the valuables out, then get rid of the rest. The people aren't necessarily poor, but have adapted to this role and have become quite good at it. It doesn't look like much from the outside, but the people are very nice and hospitable. I had wanted to take this boys picture early on in the day, but he didn't want me to. I didn't push it, but as I was leaving Garbage City, he approached and told me it was okay. Cairo, Egypt.

The first thing I see is a small chute room with a very large bag of garbage sitting in front of the chute, taking up most of the chute room space. The picture indicates to me that whoever is leaving the bag in the chute room is too lazy to take the bag to the larger bins available for the building. The other thing it tells me is that this person is also too lazy to separate their garbage from actual garbage and items that could be recycled.
With the problems of waste management today (i.e. cost of shipping garbage to landfill, etc.), it is so important that people starting re-educating themselves to divert from garbage into recycling efforts. So long as the proper facilities are available at a residential building, the problem should not exist if people will just change their thinking around what is garbage and what is recyclable. They would be surprised how much is actually recyclable and how it will lessen the amount of garbage going out of that building. This will, in the end run, represent a cost savings to the building, and to the positive environmental impact overall.
Some of the best ways of changing this thinking are providing motivating information to tenants and ensuring that the proper recycling facilities are in place and making sure that tenants know where these facilities exist. Then, you just have to hope that a little healthy peer pressure will have the desired affect on those tenants still too lazy to participate!
Our garbage dumpster is all the way at the end of that path, and trying to lift a 50 gallon garbage can full of disgusting wet garbage when the ground is frozen is an exercise in futility. And you have to take a shower, and the stink never goes away
another news channel came and did a story on the garbage problem that New Albany is facing and how the responsibility has now been turned on the residents if we want a clean city.
It's frustrating and dissapointing.
