Why are the zabbaleen considered to be more invironmentally friendly than the refuse collection system that track uses?
The Zabbaleen, a community of waste collectors in Cairo, are considered more environmentally friendly than conventional refuse collection systems due to their extensive recycling practices. They manually sort through the waste they collect, recovering a significant portion of recyclable materials, which reduces landfill waste and promotes resource recovery. In contrast, standard refuse collection systems often prioritize efficiency over sustainability, leading to higher levels of waste sent to landfills with less emphasis on recycling. This grassroots approach by the Zabbaleen fosters a more circular economy, benefiting both the environment and local communities.
