About Fernando Decillis: I was born in Montevideo, Uruguay. My family moved to the U.S. when I was 12.

The Recyclers of Port-au-Prince
In a 200-acre toxic wasteland 5 kilometers north of Haiti's capital, Port-au-Prince, hundreds of men, women and children scavenge day and night through the burning wasteland. They earn $12 to $15 a day-on a good day-for recycling plastics as well as clothing, household items and aluminum (for smelting). Some 5,000 tons of waste is created each day in the Port-au-Prince area.
