[Reader-list] ragpicking or recycling: from squattercity

[Rob van Kranenburg]

How's this for an interesting fact: "More than 95 percent of New  
Delhi has no formal system of house-to-house garbage collection, so  
it falls to the city's ragpickers, one of India's poorest and most  
marginalized groups, to provide this basic service for fellow citizens."

That the situation in India's capital city, according to dispatch  
from the International Herald Tribune.
