Video by @lucalocatelliphoto | An array of C-5 Galaxy military aircraft are parked at a place known as the Boneyard on an Air Force base in Tucson, Arizona. The 309th Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration Group (AMARG) is the largest aircraft dismantling and repurposing facility in the world. More than 3,000 airplanes are parked here, serving the U.S. Air Force for spare parts and as a storage facility for planes waiting to go back in service or be scrapped.

As the population booms, we are draining the Earth’s resources in a linear "take, make, waste" economy. We are in a transitional time, when the world is awakening to the urgency of needing solutions for living sustainably on our planet—and realizing that this linear model is unsustainable. The concept of the circular economy, in which we are frugal with resources and recycle endlessly, is emerging as a way to a better future. It requires changing our mindset—to see waste as a resource and avoid creating trash in the first place. These were taken on assignment for "The End of Trash," a forthcoming cover story for the magazine. Follow me @lucalocatelliphoto to see the most promising examples of confronting the climate crisis.
