Transportation totally adjusted to the situation

To feed, clothe, and shelter 1.4 billion people takes a lot of transportation. It comes in every variety over here.

Even though we see huge trucks on the roads, it is absolutely true that you almost never see a vehicle over-sized for its load. Under-powered, yes; over-sized, no.

With 2 recycling photos, I also need to comment on China's recycling.




Garbage in China is a large problem because of the scale of the population. Pollution from it is significant. But recycling is huge.

Our apartment building has only 2 small garbage cans - one on either end. Within minutes of anything being put in a garbage can, a recycler has come by and taken it. Instant Goodwill Industries.


In Beijing alone there are 160,000 licensed recyclers and an estimated 40,000 unlicensed ones. It is one of the bottom steps in earning enough money for tuition for your children to move them ahead in the world. Fascinating topic to Google  Fascinating to watch in all its aspects that surround us.
