"This video by Global Communities presents Kigro Recyclers, a new youth-led waste management cooperative in Nairobi, whose success demonstrates the worker cooperative model’s potential in Kenya and Africa for job creation, poverty reduction and environmental improvement. It offers a viable path to formalising Kenya’s informal workforce and promoting inclusive economic development."

It is dishonest to claim authorship for AI-generated works. This includes vibe coded works.

There's been a lot of pearl-clutching about public grocery stores!
