- Hi, I'm Aishwarya and I live in Mumbai.

- My name's Luisa and I'm live in Sao Paolo, Brazil.

- I wanted to see what trash looked like around the world.

So I contacted six BuzzFeeders, at offices around the globe

to go about their week, and throw away things

as they normally would, and at the end of the week

to empty out their trash, and just to sort it

and see what sort of trash they're producing,

and how they could potentially reduce their waste.

- [Aishwarya] Let's put all the plastic on one side.

- Plastic, it just really stinks a lot right now.

- Here in Mexico, we don't separate trash that often.

Finally I take my trash out, and it was weird for me

because I invited some friends and we have beers,

I eat a lot of chips, and I realized I make a lot of trash.

- I guess we don't really realize how much trash

we do tend to gather and build over the course of a week.

And this was a week that I would consider a light week,

For a light week, I'd say that's a fairly sizeable chunk.

- Now honestly I'm very surprised at all the plastic

that I've collected, because at home I'm not into packaged.

packaged foods, and stuff like that but I guess,

I'm not as sustainable as I though I was.

Also this packaging for vegetables and salads, and grapes.

This is the waste that I've produced during the week.

And I think it wouldn't be such a big problem

- I guess I could definitely work on myself.

Less takeout, more cooking, but if I cook,

the vegetables and the salad and everything else,

You can do better, Saba, is my conclusion to this.

- Even if you don't produce a lot of trash,

- When I buy a product, I never think about

I mostly just think about my convenience.

And I feel like now, I'm gonna be more aware and mindful

I think everyone should just life one step at a time,

and if everyone does it, then it's definitely

- Hey, Unsolved is on a new channel, and now your part.
