Cairo+~>Summary<~

Cairo Summary  ﻿   Cairo is in Egypt, and most of the people in there are "trash collectors." Bundles of trash are brought in from Cairo every day. Women and children have to sort the garbage. Some people only live on $1! Recyclables are seperated from trash. The organic waste is fed to pigs! (Wow!) One of the schools have taught over 150 kids to sort, and they have recycled a million plastic containers. The school is about the size of a mobile home! (Now that must be a crammed place!) Plastic is sent off in bags to be melted. The people take bottles of water and other products, and put in non-expensive things. After Thoughts: I thought that it must be sad to live there. All that people have to do, is go through trash. I can't think of how boring life would be for me. But, I guess those people think that what they do is normal to them. I would have NEVER thought that Cairo would be in Egypt. I think what they do is great, because they reuse, and the recycle. They also reduce global warming. They are taking a great part in helping the earth.
