On the next sign, you can see the additional character (said like "boo") which just means "no" or "not"..."Not recyclable". Still, too often here in China, the original message is a little lost in translation, such as the sign getting onto the train saying "slip and fall carefully" or on the bathroom door of the train "cut off your finger". It's starting to be a hobby for me to take pictures of the signs :) . Thanks for your delightful blog.
