The radical fix for a noxious landfill in Staten Island: Bury the trash, plant some grass and do nothing for 20 years.

"The radical fix for a noxious landfill in Staten Island: Bury the trash, plant some grass and do nothing for 20 years."

A good project should be implemented on other places too

The trash would be capped with plastic, then slowly covered with millions of tons of clean soils, the soils planted with native grasses. The four garbage mountains would be transformed into four soft green hills

Not that you can blame them for preferring a park to what was in its heyday one of the world’s great eyesores. Imagine Central Park with trash mounds 20 stories high. Now imagine that times three. Imagine a not-delicious mix of household waste excreting noxious methane and millions of gallons of ammonium-rich leachate, the technical term for the juice that flows from trash hills into the waterways. By the late 1970s, an estimated 28,000 tons of trash arrived at Fresh Kills every day.

The trash would be capped with plastic, then slowly covered with millions of tons of clean soils, the soils planted with native grasses. The four garbage mountains would be transformed into four soft green hills straddling the convergence of creeks.

I remember the last barge because I happened to be there. It was March 22, 2001, and I was embedded with the Department of Sanitation’s film crew, greeting the barge from the rain-soaked deck of what is known to the Sanitation Department navy as a trash skimmer, a little boat that snags flotsam, like a mechanized sea gull. The barge had set off that morning from a transfer station in College Point, Queens, heading south into the East River

garbage dump - a piece of land where waste materials are dumped. dumpsite, rubbish dump, trash dump, wasteyard, waste-yard, dump. eitchen midden, kitchen midden, midden - (archeology) a mound of domestic refuse containing shells and animal bones marking the site of a prehistoric settlement.

We are growing in numbers. More land is needed everyday to support this growing numbers. Only sustainable approach and efficient planning and steps like dis can keep the balance between human and nature.

There is a lot to learn from the news. There is information to be taken for advice. To the people of all those countries, to all the industries, to those who are accustomed to a dirty life, to those who leave their factory waste in the open, to those who do not keep their houses clean.

What a good thing 🤗
