Hi Everyone,
Being at home due to this Coronavirus, I was interested to observe people digging through my apartment block's trash bin.
Very quickly, I recognized they wanted my recyclables and cardboard.
I do applaud these people, and have occasionally given them money, as I realize they are working hard, even during the snow and Coronavirus times.
I am curious, though, whether they do this just to stay active in old age, or because they need the money?
I know, in the US, some sweet deals for recycling centers are up to 5 cents per aluminum can, 25 cents for a glass bottle, etc. At that rate, for old people who want something to do, and exercise, it could be feasible.
Do we know how much China pays?
