Brazilians uncover money in cans amid rising recycling push

In Rio de Janeiro, Brazilians rarely recycle and litter widely yet hope to boost aluminum can recycling to Japan's 1999 rate of 79 percent. The shift is driven by earnings from can collecting, with a growing underground economy around homelessness and modest incomes. Brazil eyes major gains as recycling becomes a business, aided by national attitudes and potential policy changes.

Recycling drives Brazil toward a more recycling conscious culture

In Brazil recycling gains traction beyond the poor as middle class participation grows. Latasa, the leading aluminum can maker, accounts for half the can market and a quarter of recycling, with 55 percent of its cans from recycled aluminum. Latasa runs 16,000 institutions offering cash prizes for used cans and maintains 47 centers in Rio and Sao Paulo where collectors can sell aluminum for 36 cents a pound and buy discounted food. Latasa’s director says early investment in recycling inspired broader adoption as 18 new city laws are pending to boost the market.
