Pick Up Garbage To Protect Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. A large amount of household waste and plastic garbage floods into this pure land. How to attract more Tibetans to become garbage pickers? China UnionPay has built the first "Garbage Exchange for Daily Necessities Supermarket" on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Transforming trash into a unique 'currency' to encourage Tibetans to gather garbage and buy daily essentials, thus protecting the plateau's environment. In order to spread such a beautiful and benevolent act, we invited a documentary photographer to capture the authentic moments of Tibetans picking up garbage.
