Growing up in a European capital where rubbish is put in the dustbin and
from there the rubbish dumps, which I do not know and in a way I don't
want to know where they are. People in the cities choose to distance
themselves from these facts and get quite annoyed when the trash is not
collected on time.

However we forget various other places around the world which receive
our rubbish. It is a fact that trash is moved around, massive quantities
are thrown in the oceans and the third world. These of course produce
many illnesses and infections to the people close to this 'mountains of
rubbish'.
Are the pictures here the answer to the problem in the 21st century? We
have been hearing that a futuristic solution would be to send our
rubbish into space. Maybe recycling should be taken more seriously.
These images are appalling, showing how colonial attitudes from the
Western powers towards the South, mainly Africa, continue even in the
post-colonial era.
