A question, or several.
Can one please share with me the reason for the fellows out nights hunting the plastic bottles from the street garbage? Of course there is a reason for this. I cannot imagine they are all environmentalists and picking them out for the health of mother earth, and without remuneration. Therefore, there must be some remuneration. Does anyone know where these fellows deposit the plastic, and the payrate per kilo?
Second question. Why, if there is money to be made at this, has no-one tapped the unbelievably rich vein of plastic bottles which have accumulated upon the rocky shoures of the river plate? Walking in the ecological reserve along the banks of the river and gazing out at the hills of Uruguay while contemplating his suicide, one bears witness to the wealth of plastic bottles there, knee-deep in some areas. My guesses to the reasoning behind their neglection as follows. One, perhaps the park does not allow it, for some reason, or would not allow the necessary tumbrel in through the gates to sully the landscape while the bottles are squired from the river to the entry. Two, perhaps the bottle pickers are simply too lazy to walk the necessary distance, gate to riverbank and return, several times as would be necessary over several days or weeks to collect the wealth of bottles waiting there. Three, the bottle pickers, somehow, are ignorant of the bonanza of plastic along that stretch of river. Four, the sun has rendered those bottles, through exposure to the strong influence of the UV light, unfit for recycling or whatever process is done to the bottles after they are turned in. Those complete my four guesses.
If there is money to be made here, i wish to make it. The great harvest of bottles along the river simply cannot have been entirely overlooked if this was a paying exercise. If this is a paying exercise, I'll need a partner.
