VALENZUELA, METRO MANILA, PHILIPPINES - 30 SEPTEMBER: A worker on-duty atop a mini-mountain of plastic wastes at a recycling facility in Valenzuela, dubbed as the 'Plastic City', in Valenzuela, Metro Manila, the Philippines, on 30 September, 2024. In the highly urbanised city of Valenzuela, locals have been victimised by plastic wastes generated locally. As a hub for nearly hundreds of junk shops and 100 plastic recycling plants, they have been contributing to the worsening air pollution in the vicinity as they process parts of the astonishing 2.7 million tons of plastic wastes generated in the Southeast Asian country each year, which takes up about 20 percent of the total waste annually in the Philippines, and an enormous amount of them would end up in ocean, according to the World Bank.
