Today's Picture

Meet Mr. Ferit. He's a recycler. A lot of homeless person like Ferit go through the garbage cans and collect all the plastic materials for some, paper materials for others, etc. Then they go to the incineration plants and sell them by the weight. It's a "good" but sad way to recycle. Mentalities about recycling are very far from the ones in western Europe or in the USA.
Mr. Ferit is always cleaning the garbage at the corner of Siraserviler Street and Meselik Street in Taksim.
