A campaign against the improper disposal of garbage attracts attention of people passing by the Cinelandia area, in downtown Rio, on September 6, 2016. A sculpture of cigarette butt with 4 meters high has the phrase "bothers you, right?" to alert people that even the disposal of garbage so small can cause inconvenience to the city storm drains clogging and even health problems for the population. The Rio de Janeiro recently installed thousands of bins for the disposal of cigarette butts, which are taken to a waste sorting facility and then treated not cause problems to the environment.

A worker of the Mubuyu Farm, Zambia, prepares coffee beans for the fermentation process in the fermentation boxes. A series of chemical reactions occurring for 24 hours enhance the flavor quality of the roasted coffee. Mubuyu farm is the largest producer of coffee in Zambia and the only private one. It belongs to Willem Lublinkhof who came to the country 45 years ago with the Dutch development service. Because coffee products are not very popular among Zambians, the bulk of it goes for export. There are 65 hectares of land under the coffee plantation today instead of 300 hectares in 2009. The manager of the coffee production Monday Chilanga says that the main reason of the reducing is very low prices for coffee.
