: In Cairo, there's a suburb called Mokottam that is better known as "Garbage City." Why? Because its inhabitants, mostly Coptic Christian Egyptians known as the "Zabbaleen" (Garbage People) sort through all the trash from Cairo's 20 million people by hand. They recycle 90% of Cairo's trash - up to 3x as much as the average European city.
