Brazzil

And a new J.C. Agajanian is on his way. Congratulations. What is also interesting is how ingenious less fortunate Brazilians are in inventing new useful products from discards.

less fortunate? their are the miserable sons of the capitalism for God sakes!

Brazilians are caressing their navel....once more !

Just walk in the brazilian cities, the largests with overall dirty streets, the mediums and smallests with garbage everywhere, right in the center and/or outside !
In most areas, large or small, dumpsites are also their waterways.
Brazil beaches are not any better, full of uncollected garbage when population resides
nearby !

Thus your 50 % overall collection rate is highly doubtful, and of the garbage effectively collected, doubtful too that 50 % goes in dumpsites, except if your
definition of dumpsite is : INCLUDING streets, beaches, waterways, Ocean......ON TOP of your legal and illegal landfills and dumpsites !!!!!!!

Finally it is very strange that your overall garbage production is around 140'000 tons per day, number we read here or there, because the Brazilian government himself reported to the UN 15 years ago that the country production was 241'000 tons per day. Another highly unlikely fact that your overall garbage production (not collection) fell by 40 % in 15 years !
Pure invention, I already hear ! Nooooo, please read
http://www.un.org/esa/earthsummit/brzil-cp.htm#chap21
part of it is : "Regular waste collection services in 1991 attended to 80.0% of urban and 5.6% of rural population, for a total of 241 thousand tons a day. These figures rose to 86.7% and 10.4% respectively in 1995"

Curious too that if 80 % of urban and 5,6 % of rural population had garbage collection, assuming there is no change since 1995, that 50 % of the collected garbage goes to dumpsites. Meaning that if so much of the population got collected, the dumpsites were filled by.... ( (the municipalities)) who collected the garbage, and not illegally by the population.

In one word : Brazilian stats are worthless !
Most probably only the population garbage is in the 140'000 tons per day but not the
Industrial garbage.....going right....in the Ocean !!!!!!!

And sadly enough as Ourofino pointed out, the poor scavengers are the sons of Capitalism. He meant no doubt the Brazilian Capitalism. Smile. Because foreigners are not involved in anyway with the garbage production/collection/recycling done in Brazil by Brazilians and managed by Brazilians, and regulated/non regulated by Brazilians too !

No one has ever accused Brazilians, Africans, Chineses or whoever for the garbage in Europe or the USA ! Thus how could a Brazilian accuse Europe or the USA of the garbage produced in Brazil ??????

Their always figuring out newfangled ways to "inspire the world"!!

I don't see anything inspiring about the poor, starving, unhealthy, overworked horses that are being led through traffic (often times being hit) into the city to pull a cart full of recyclable trash back into the rural areas of Porto Alegre.

They are always figuring out newfangled ways to "kill more innocent people of the world"!!

How are the South Americans killing innocents?

It's amazing how harsh people dedicate such long time in writing negatively about any topic related to any people they do not like. Just pick a topic... Would rather doing a better job turning his/her head to the local US in Philly and contribute with a positive attitude to end a line of more than 400 people shot to death in just one year! Forget the business you are not contributing to!

Yeah soccer is the best sport ever your right.

Brasileiros, falemos somente o português e deixemos esses gringos se virarem com tradutores pela rede mundial, se assim quiserem. Assim podemos conversar livremente e comentar as asnices aqui escritas por eles. Esse site não pode ser sério ao permitir coisas como bem exemplificados nesses comentários. Isso não é apenas ofensivo de uma forma inocente, mas sim proposital. O intuito desse site é denegrir a imagem do Brasil e de seu povo, portanto gastar tempo e saliva argumentando é inútil.

Escrevamos somente o português para que outros brasileiros não se iludam ao visitar o site, e deixemo-los na escuridão de sua própria ignorância.

Obrigado pela proposta...Indeferida

Para "A Brazilian" - Cale a sua boca. Você é uma idiota.

A comment to it looks like. YOU must be an AMERICAN. Right the king of arrogance. You have contributed to the situation in Brazil and Latin America with the Marshall plan. First, you have created dictatorships around the clock, it goes from Nicaragua all the way into the last tip of Chile. You country is destructive and it continues to be, ecocide and genocide is the only word you know, American foreign policy is just that. In the name of progress and in the name of filling up you SUV's, you invade Iraq and kill civilians. Your legacy around the world is to kill, kill, kill.

We do a much better job at recycling than you. Big fat wasters. You live in the "throw away society" , did you forget that?

I'm impressed. You're truly well informed and very intelligent. You wrote something that people could understand and made the subject intriguing for everyone. I'm saving this for future use.
