Why Are You Slowing Down?

China's economy is just as rocky as American economy or on the way to becoming so. Because of this unfortunate circumstance China has begun to worry less about recycling than they should be. It doesn't help that China is the world's largest garbage importer, recycling plants are beginning to look like garbage dumps piles everywhere and of everything. This isn't good.

China being a very old country has certain traditions that explain why they like recycling, the thriftiness of using something over again and again until it is used completely and as much as possible. I can't believe how much is being imported to China's recycling program that isn't even being recycled, it's just sitting there minding its own business... this is not good. It's the same thing as a garbage dump only difference is, its all paper, plastic and glass. Recyclable.... what to do with this world...what to do?

Until next time...
