Case study: Beijing Besieged by Waste

Like New York and Mexico City, Beijing faces serious challenges in managing urban waste. From 2008 to 2010, photographer Wang Jiuliang visited more than 460 landfills in the suburbs of Beijing, and took over 5,000 pictures. The project was reported widely in Chinese media and generated significant social impact.
