Meet the people of Nonthaburi Landfill, one of Thailand's largest landfills. They live and work there, sorting through refuse and selling some of it in order to make money and a better life for themselves and their families.

    Greenlight for this very important subject! This story is one of many like this around the globe. I understand in Mexico they are not so nice to each other on the landfills. This story has so many layers to it. It makes my head spin. This is a bit long. But the subject kept me glued to it. It will be as strong if you shorten the piece. I imagine this longer version would serve very well as an educational piece in schools. Here is our pod on solar energy> <a href="http://www.current.tv/watch/22233281">link</a>
    We would like to know what you think.

    A very interesting story, but too long for Current.

    You need to at least cut into half for it to be acceptable to Current.

    Real, important, touching work. Excellently shot, it is obvious that it is part of a longer film, the care you took with its preparation. Great.

    Great take on an important subject.

    But I agree 13.5 mins is too long, can be squeezed into 5-7 mins. as most pods in current are... Still it's good overall. GL

    Great doc! Very interesting, especially how some of the people seem genuinely happy.

    I also agree that it could be about five minutes shorter.

    Provocative work about a subject that does not receive due attention (particularly for a country that prides itself on so-called "sustainable" projects") in the developing world. Bravo!

    Hey everybody, thanks for the love you've shown Megan and I here. We did get contacted by Current and they are interested in airing this on their cable/satellite channel, so please greenlight it (if you think it's worthy) and leave a comment, so many more people can learn about this world. And, of course, please pass it along to anyone you know who you think might enjoy it.

    Wow !! that's a nice interested things. I like it because it reflect real Thai people's life who many people did not know and care much about them. In my opinion, it show that peple who did not have enough education has not much alternatively in their life. It means that Thai society is currently lack of education therefore education and poverty are the cause of this video's problem.

    This is a very good documentary which present in the different view that should present to other people especially the one who don't know how the wasted they made have problem and also the life style of people who live with the wasted that most of people didn't know before.
