At the same time in Germany, a new rule said people who came to the towns to sold their fruit and vegetables can't return to their town with a empty card, they had to brought their cards with some rubbish.
Now we're recycling our rubbish and it became composts, or other products made with the same material.

Since the begining of human history, people has produced rubbish. This is an inevitable problem, because is impossible that the people stop to produce it.
In the earliest times they hunted their food, so they haven’t had much rubbish, but when people started to live in cities they contaminated with wood, smoke, ash and chunks of objects, and they used to leave their rubbish outside their homes. They tried some plans to have their city clean, but the only opne that resulted was to carry rubbish in the country, outside the city.
