For most of us, plastic is just plastic. But there's a lot involved in its collection and segregation before it can be recycled. Waste worker Yolly Cadilo shares a day in her life sorting garbage, and Paul Orpiada of Plastic Bank-Philippines discusses how we can support both formal and informal waste workers and do more for the environment in this episode of A Better Normal.

This episode is the second of a three-part series made possible with the support of the Worldwide Fund for Nature Philippines.
