Waste Disposal Landscape Photography - Saturday Riding

On Saturday morning, I rode my motorcycle with my daughter to a waste disposal area. The area is for disposing of waste from Bekasi city. Bekasi is a city that supports Jakarta. Everyday, there are hundreds of trucks that dispose of waste in the disposal area. I think thousands of tons of waste every day come to the area.
I am not sure how the waste management in your country. In Indonesia, there has been no modern waste management. The waste is put in one location. It is piled up. It creates a waste mountain.

This is the look of the waste mountain in the waste disposal area. The pile is waste. There are heavy tools that remove waste from the trucks to the mountain.


A man is collecting some recyclable waste. He put plastics and other recyclable waste in big bags.

Some people are weighing the plastic waste they collect.

I rode to the mountain location. A worker stopped his motorbike.

This is the street where every truck enters and unloads the waste.

The truck that carries waste is going to enter the unloading location.
Waste has great financial potential. However, traditional waste management creates environmental problems. This area is air polluted with the smell of garbage. Ground water here is also not drinkable. How is waste management in your country? Thank you for reading my post, I hope you enjoy it.
