    BEJING, July 23 (Xinhua) -- All plastic bottles discarded at each Olympic venue will be collected and recycled to maintain the cleanness in the stadium, according to a meeting for Olympic waste recycling held here on Wednesday.

    According to the meeting, Coca Cola, World's largest soft drink maker, together with the Beijing-based Income Resources Recovery Company, will jointly do the waste collection work.

    Each venue would have a large number of drinking bottles discarded by the audience during Olympic Games, and it was important to recycle all these plastic wastes for a tidy environment, said an official in charge of Coca Cola's China operations.

    The bottles can be recovered and made into some kind of clothing fiber, said the official.
