People, for as little as a dollar a day, pick through our stuff. They extract what they can, which is mostly the metals — circuit boards and so forth — and they leave behind mostly what they can't recover, which is, again, mostly the plastics.
La gente, por solo un dólar al día, rebusca entre nuestros desechos y extrae lo que puede, esencialmente los metales – tarjetas de circuitos y otros – y dejan todo lo que no se puede recuperar, que es, una vez más, el plástico.
