Local residents shows QR code cards used to open different bins to put their garbage at a waste collection point in Shanghai, China, 19 June 2019. Shanghai residents queued in front of a waste collection point, waiting to put their garbage into different bins. For decades, farmers have dumped garbage near rivers which polluted the water and soil. In cities, the ever-increasing amount of garbage has piled up at a speed which exceeds the capacities of landfills and incinerators' ability to dispose of it, threatening the environment and people's health and choking the country's development.
