Trash talk – is Catalonia’s recycling system working?
Cristina Tomàs White and Guifré Jordan join Lorcan Doherty to look at the journey our waste goes on, from local neighborhood drop-off points to massive industrial-scale processing plants. Plus, innovative ways to get people to recycle more, including music jingles in Catalonia and Taiwan, and a quiz on what rubbish goes in which bin, with help from residuonvas.cat. This week's Catalan phrase is 'això fa olor a socarrim'. Literally, 'this smells burnt', it is used when something looks bad, similar to the English-language phrase 'this smells fishy'.
