There is an interesting recycling system here.  There are families (and I say that because I always see children doing this) who use a horse and cart to pick up the cardboard from in front of the homes, where the garbage bags are placed (and I might add surprisingly is picked up EVERYday).  Then they sell the cardboard for recycling.  I am assuming these people don´t make a lot of money otherwise there would be a SH**load of horses in the streets. No pun intended. smile smile
