China has been the leader of the recycling industry for over 30 years, importing materials more than any country in the world and making billions of dollars in the process. But recently, the Chinese government took a tougher stance on recycling, effectively disrupting the global recycling industry. More importantly, China's decision has caused major problems for many Western countries, since they were the ones exporting millions of tons of recyclable waste to China.

China did not kill the recycling industry; China has its own recycling industry. Western countries should wake up and take responsibility for their own waste rather than passing it on to other countries.

Recycling is environmental protection. Sending trash to other countries is not recycling. If any country does not process waste material inside its own territory, they are not recycling.

After 2017, China has not received any imported garbage.
At present, the largest garbage receiver in the world is Philippines, and this industry is booming in the Philippines and will become the economic pillar of Philippines.
