Građani Njujorka proizvode 11 000 tona smeća svakog dana. Svakog dana! Ova zapanjujuća statistika samo je jedan od razloga zašto je Robin Nejgl započela istraživački projekat sa gradskim Odeljenjem za čistoću. Išla je maršrutama, upravljala mehaničkim metlama, čak je i sama vozila smećarski kamion - sve to da bi odgovorila na naizgled jednostavno, ali ipak teško pitanje: ko čisti za nama?

Šta sam otkrila u smeću Njujorka

Cities like New York generate 11,000 tons of garbage every single day, a relentless tide managed by a workforce often overlooked and stigmatized. Sanitation workers risk their health and safety daily to keep streets clean and disease at bay. Without their constant efforts, piles of refuse would quickly threaten public health and stall urban life. Their labor underpins the speed and comfort of modern living, yet they rarely receive acknowledgment or gratitude.
