The world sends them garbage...

Children from Paraguay are taking the world's garbage and giving back music. Paraguay accepts landfill waste from other nations; a lucrative business deal, but usually detrimental to its own ecology and citizens' well-being. Children from the villages near these garbage sites have fashioned musical instruments from the refuse, turning the world's refuse into music. You can watch a video on their harmonic exploits here:
