Paper and plastic also get recycled. Foodstuff and other organic matter is made into compost.

Fun story. My company installed some aluminum recycle bins. A few months later it was discovered the city was just trashing the cans they picked up because it was more expensive for them to recycle than to trash. We now just have trash cans.

Well, that is callous and selfish but it makes sense in a perverse way. Treating the city in which you live like offal is even worse, as it is actively stupid.

I lived in Italy for 3 years and was frequently embarrassed by the way Americans acted there. I probably should add I lived in Napoli, so the bar for how to act was already pretty low.

I was thinking "do as the Romans" like the saying. It was a joke.

Americans can be very bad tourists.
