Summer of stink: Inside America's garbage labour dispute

Garbage collectors in America are on strike, causing trash to pile up in cities like Boston, California, Illinois, Georgia, and Washington. Republic Services workers are demanding better pay and benefits, leading to over 2,000 collectors across the country to stop work. While some local disputes have been resolved, many workers are still holding out, impacting millions of Americans. The strikes have drawn attention to the unsanitary working conditions faced by sanitation workers, highlighting the need for fair labor practices in the waste management industry.
