In China you can recycle and litter at the same time
Katja told me that while I'm in China I can just deposit my recyclables like empty plastic and glass bottles near a trash can or just on the side of the street out of harm's way because people who collect that stuff for money will come along and pick them out of the trash anyway.
It's almost like you're doing these people a favor by leaving your item in plain view! Gosh how *nice* of a person am I? Seriously!
I don't have any conclusive proof of this but I trust Katja (she'd *never* lie to me :) ) and since it allows me to be super lazy I said "hey why not?"

It works in NYC.
This is an interesting observation you have made, and quite funny how you look and described it. Maybe that's why they don't sort on recyleable items, it create job opportunities!
It's a socialist country, so everyone needs a job... although I think these people who recycle do it on their own volition.
