About Wasteland By Oliver Franklin-Wallis
When we throw things away, what does that actually mean? Where does it go, and who deals with it when it gets there? In Wasteland, award-winning journalist Oliver Franklin-Wallis takes us on an eye-opening journey through the global waste industry.
From the mountainous landfills of New Delhi to Britains overflowing sewers, from hollowed-out mining towns in the USA to Ghanas flooded second-hand markets, we meet the people on the frontline of our waste crisis both those being exploited, and those determined to make a difference.
On the way, we discover the corporate greenwashing that started the recycling movement; the dark truth behind our second-hand donations; and come face to face with the 10,000-year legacy of our nuclear waste.
