As the most popular place for the Spring Festival in Beijing, the temple fair allows the general public to taste all kinds of delicious food all over the world. However, the huge amount of garbage left after a big meal also keeps sanitation workers busy. Beijing Youth Daily reporter visited the three temple fairs of Ditan, Longtan and Changdian yesterday and found that there were more tourists, but less garbage on the ground. All this was attributed to the unknown sanitation workers who bent down thousands of times and cleaned up quickly without stopping. ? "You have to sweep at least 4,-5, bamboo sticks of mutton skewers a day." The sanitation worker at the temple fair in Changdian said.
There are 3 booths in three food districts in ditan park, which not only have noodles, hot and sour powder, mutton offal soup and other soup snacks, but also various kebabs and grilled squid, which have always been the "hardest hit" for garbage. This year, ditan park has placed 69 plastic garbage bins in three areas, and there are 1 temporary garbage bins erected by iron frames on the surrounding green space. Sanitation workers are on duty nearby, and the garbage bins are cleaned at least once in a quarter of an hour. "Many of them are bamboo sticks with big kebabs, or disposable small bowls filled with soup and water. You can't wait until the trash can is full, but you have to clean it when it is three-quarters or even only half full." Liu Yang, the person in charge of ditan park Garden Sanitation, told the reporter of Beiqing Daily that there are 12 sanitation workers in ditan park * * * who are responsible for cleaning, and the young and middle-aged laborers are all assigned to the gourmet area, and a temporary "garbage collection station" has been set up in the green space where garbage is concentrated, waiting for the sanitation truck to take it away at night.
"You have to sweep at least four or five thousand bamboo sticks of mutton skewers a day." In the food area of Changdian Temple Fair, every few stalls, a sanitation worker can be seen "sweeping" with a dustpan. The cleaning efficiency can almost reach the point where garbage is thrown in one second, and they quickly sweep into the trash can in the next second. Among them, the bamboo sticks of kebabs are the largest amount of garbage in temple fairs.
This year, the number of trash cans in the gourmet area of the Temple Fair in Changdian has soared, and there is a trash can almost two steps away. Two sanitation workers standing next to a row of garbage cans said that unlike previous years, this year's temple fair requires strict garbage sorting. The two of them stood next to the trash can with sorting clips, and customers threw them at them. In addition, the big banner slogan of "waste reduction and re-classification" can also be seen everywhere in the food area of this year's Factory Dian Temple Fair.
Despite its popularity, Beijing Youth Daily reporter noticed that the environment of Longtan Temple Fair was clean and tidy. A sanitation worker told the reporter of Beiqing Daily that he cleaned up about 1 barrels of garbage on average every day. "There were more tourists on the first day, and 1 barrels were always cleaned up. There are slightly fewer tourists in the second day of the second year, but there are also more than 7 barrels, with an average of 1 barrels a day. " The sanitation worker said that they started work before the opening of the temple fair at 7: in the morning, and they had to finish cleaning up after closing at 5: in the afternoon, and they couldn't get off work until almost 6: . "In previous years, there were more people littering casually, and our main energy was spent on cleaning the road. But it has been much better in recent years. There are fewer and fewer tourists littering, and our work can be easier. "
Temporary sanitation worker: "After the temple fair, buy a plane toy for my grandson."
"It's much easier to be a sanitation worker here than to work at home. I can also take this opportunity to visit Beijing and buy a plane toy for my grandson." Aunt Gai Xiqin from Pingshan County, Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province, followed her fellow villagers to work in Longtan Temple Fair this year and became a temporary sanitation worker.
Pingshan County, where Xibaipo is located, villagers from the old district come to Longtan Temple Fair to work as sanitation workers. There are temple fairs almost every year, and some villagers even come to the temple fair to work for five or six consecutive years. On the day before New Year's Eve, Aunt Gai and 6 fellow villagers from the same county took a long-distance bus and came to Beijing in a mighty way. On New Year's Eve, Aunt Gai and two other fellow villagers were assigned to watch the 5-meter road near Qinglong Bridge. The first time I was not at home for the New Year, Aunt Gai was a little sad. "The team leader sent a message with old clothes and didn't have time to have a New Year's Eve dinner with his family. However, I also ate jiaozi in Beijing. Let's go home for a reunion dinner on the sixth day. "
Yesterday was the last day of the temple fair. Aunt Gai held a garbage clamp in one hand and a black plastic bag in the other, and walked opposite the "surging" crowd in front of her. After a while, the garbage bags were full. She quickly gathered the garbage bags and sent them to the garbage concentration area on the green space. After going back and forth like this all morning, 3 or 4 garbage bags were accumulated. Speaking of the labor intensity from 7: a.m. to 6: p.m., Aunt Gai feels that it is lower than working temporarily on the construction site on weekdays. "This time, it is an eye-opener. Some people in their seventies and eighties in the village have never even seen a car. I can earn six or seven hundred yuan in a few busy days. When the temple fair is over, I have an appointment with my fellow villagers to go to Tiananmen Square and buy a plane toy for my eldest grandson. "
