POLLUTION Chimney of the second waste incineration furnace in Milan. The furnace is in operation and a plume of dense smoke comes out of the chimney. A skeletal tree and the semi-rusted railing complete the desolate picture. At the time, waste sorting reached insignificant percentages, and most ended up in landfill; later, the increase in sorting and the opening of new waste-to-energy plants became necessary to comply with the Kyoto Protocol for regulating greenhouse gas emissions. Photograph, Italy 1990.
