This footage was filmed and produced 1 January 2022.

Rodrigo, a can collector from Ubatuba, Brazil, talks a little about his work to support himself and helps in conservation by removing some rubbish that is on the side of the highway and the beach.

Translation: "First, I would like to talk and collect the cans for everyone to see, from this work we receive a price for having a coffee, buying lunch, a cigarette, a cachaça, among other things. It's a job that no one sees, are you seeing this garbage spread? We remove all of it and this work is a voluntary work with Mother Nature that is done on the coast, on the beach, in a small square somewhere, so we need to recycle because there is a lot of garbage spread that Mother Nature is in need, because if no one does anything, we will have twice as much garbage as cups, plastic, bottles, among those things.
There are two bags from the brother in front, but these two here that I took last night guarantee my lunch for today, my breakfast, my cigarette and also my cachaça. A lot of people say it's good, but it's not, I need to work and pick up the cans one by one, in several places, here and there, other than the pet bottles and glass that are left behind, but I take it out because I am I volunteer with mother nature. And many times I receive funds and food, doing some cleaning services in someone's business, the merchant gives me some money and I remove all the garbage from his garden or the sidewalk. Tomorrow you come back and see garbage, but not cans, but I alone won't make it so I need help, but my part I'm doing. And every day I remove three types of trash from the beach and I would like to make a deal, for anyone who is watching this video, on the beach or in any environment, to remove three trash and put in the closest trash can that Mother Nature thanks and God willing not there will be more of this garbage. Here are three lollipop sticks, "let's make a brother combination to throw these sticks in the trash!" You went beyond the same as I took one more lol. Look, I collect about 300 garbage a day. Good morning my dears and Happy New Year, there's a brother here doing a report and he's going to throw some garbage in the trash. We thank you".
