Years ago when I first arrived in my current city, though I lived close to a motor spare parts market where condemn parts are being dumped under the power line cable situated close to the market, over there you will see a mountain hip of iron waste because such waste can not be burnt so they had no option than to dump it under the power line (then it waste considered as a refuse dump). today not even a single of it is left there at a point the place became a site became a natural mineral resource for the neighborhood.
Three years ago carton users started gathering cartons to be sold to local scavengers at first I wondered what could be this use of carton that easily gets wet, I never knew those scavengers saw tomorrow. Carton is not being burnt again or dumped in the gutter anymore is now an essential commodity. I noticed a very big carton warehouse here in Benin where cartons are being stored later packed inside a forty feet container ready to be moved to Lagos.
Who knows the next waste that will later turn into an essential commodity in years to come should please tell me
