Where does all the garbage go?

The garbos working hard early in the morning opposite my bus stop.

Every day early, while still dark, the garbage collectors are out on the streets of my Bangkok collecting the garbage waiting for their attention.  Not once a week but every day and every day there is a huge amount of garbage to be cared for.  My question is -
Where does all the gabage go? 

I am this week at a conference on human rights in SEAsia.  Mary Robinson, a former President of Ireland and member of the Elders group, was quoted as saying that climate change will be the great human rights issue of this century.  Where does it all begin?  Right in my street as I wonder where all the garbage goes, I ask this question as I see the aftermath of our daily existence.  How our lives must impact our world for the worse when we show a lack of interest or respect in how we handle our garbage.   

As I look from my bus stop and see the amount left on the street by just my local market, I am gobsmacked at the amount sitting before me.  Then I think how much more there must be throughout all Bangkok and this is just for one day.  It is mind boggling. 

It makes me think - not only must we respect creation, we must respect our garbage and those who collect it each day. 

But the question remains.  Where does all the garbage go?  It is definitely moved from my little area of the world but does deal with it or mean anything ultimately?
