In the face of a project to build 7 waste incineration plants in the metropolitan area of Buenos Aires, Argentina, thousands of cartoneros (waste pickers) from the FACyR – CTEP (Federación Argentina de Cartoneros y Recicladores) rallied on November 22nd, 2017 under the banner “Stop incineration, support inclusive recycling”, to show their opposition and to demand an inclusive law which acknowledges their work and promotes recycling.
