Greenpeace Philippines visited the community of Capulong, Tondo, Manila, in May 2016 to take a peek on how e-waste recyclers, or 'mangbabaklas' in local parlance, go about their daily lives. Most of the members of the community subsist on recycling old electronics meant for disposal. The informal waste sector has been lobbying for recognition from the Philippine government, which will give them social protection and better working conditions than what they currently have.
