Video by @lucalocatelliphoto | This futuristic architecture is the home of Amager Bakke, in Copenhagen, which claims it's the world’s cleanest waste-to-energy plant. It was designed by architect Bjarke Ingels to incorporate a ski slope and a hiking path on its roof, turning the plant into a public gathering space. The plant can burn through 70 tons of trash each hour, producing hot water and energy for 120,000 households in the city, and its gas filtration system clears the pipe discharge of pollutants.
As a photographer engaged in technological and environmental innovation, highlighting and telling stories about our struggle to transition toward sustainability is the main focus of my work. Can technologies like Amager Bakke help us solve our waste issue on the way to a circular economy society?
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.
