Recyclage - Waste

Une orange = Un petit sac de plastique
Un pamplemousse = Un petit sac de plastique
Une paquet de poireaux = Un petit sac de plastique
2 patates = Un petit sac de plastique
Une petite épicerie = 2 à 3 sac de plastiques
Les papiers, plastiques, bouteilles, métaux = Poubelle
Tout les jours, partout
Ça me fait mal à chaque fois

There are no recycling bins in Chile or Argentina. They use plastic bags in grocery stores for your purchases. The aqueducts of Mendoza are treated like waste bins by the citizens as well as the city employees. It is normal, while walking the streets, to open up your packaging on a product and just let the packaging fall to the ground. On a typical inter city drive, yes you'll see beautiful forests, deserts, mountains, rivers, but in each one of them you'll find plastic bottles, garbage bags, tires.

¿Are my feelings colonialist? ¿Or environmentalist?

  1. I think being "green" is a champagne concern for many people... it costs money to implement recycling programs, to change a culture. Even in the West, you still get plastic bags at lots of places. Colonialist? No... je ne pense pas. But I think of how to describe from their point of view and now I feel colonialist or patronizing. Hmmm.

    Vous ne pouvez pas simplement garder un sac de plastique et le re-utiliser sans demander des noveaux sacs?
