Waste Management is a true symbol of Globalization, being part of both the problem and part of the solution we have chosen. The topic of waste is one that is, or should be, more and more on the forefront of our concerns.
These are photographs of 3 Waste Management Bins. They are non judgmental. The viewer is invited to place his or her concerns on this problem/solution of waste disposal, which Vancouver and most of North American has chosen.
