Waste Wars Quotes

“city of Portland, along a rocky promontory looking out on Sears Island, whose perimeter of beach appears at first glance to have been dusted by a light snowfall. Only I looked closer and realized that the ground wasn’t covered in snowflakes at all. Thousands upon thousands of minuscule pieces of plastic speckled the island’s shoreline.”
― Alexander Clapp, Waste Wars: Dirty Deals, International Rivalries and the Scandalous Afterlife of Rubbish
