Our
interviewees criticize the behavior of some people who, despite the presence of
a trash bin, continue to dispose of waste inappropriately, a situation that
causes discomfort.
Razul
Damião, who does not follow this behavior, considers the people who throw trash
on the ground to be stubborn.
“They
are being very difficult. The people are not doing what the municipality wants
for our benefit. The bin was placed, but they throw it around carelessly,” he
said.
Another
citizen, who was passing by the area, blames the authorities for sending
children who are unable to reach the height of the bin.
“They
send little children to throw out the trash, and as a result, they end up
placing it on the ground,” said Euzébio Luís.
The
situation continues to pose a public health threat and contributes to
environmental pollution. A vendor nearby reports feeling ill due to the smell.
“It’s
very hard. When we tell people to throw the trash in the bin, they insist that
the bin is too high and it’s too much work to put the trash in. We are
suffering,” she lamented.
According
to municipal workers in Cuamba, who are responsible for the cleaning in the
area, people take advantage of the absence of workers in the afternoon to
dispose of waste improperly, and they discourage this behavior. (Jaime Paculeque)
