“ It keeps surprising me that people from other region of the world often still seem to consider landfills an acceptable method of waste treatment, and that waste to energy seems somewhat utopian to them. These plants don't just burn waste. They produce electricity and heat, often supplying homes or industry.” - Sofiane

In China, landfill sectors is in the rapid transition, hundreds of old sites,, being closed or mined for the west. As of 2023, the number of municipal waste landfill sites across the country has decreased from 640 in 2015 to 366. The closed sites are now transforming into equal parks, industrial parks, or other land usage after soil remediation and the land redevelopment.” - Meiling
