Garbage Day
Scanned lith print.
Mamiya 645 ProTL w/ 120 mm/f5.6.
Rollei RPX 25 in Rodinal 1+100, semistand 1 h.
Cropped neg lith printed on Foma Retrobrom 152 Sp and developed in Moersch Easy Lith.
Untoned.
A somewhat (perhaps) boring story about the recycling system in Hammarö/Sweden.
1. Food waste (extra snowballs on the bin, here!). Stored in small compostable paper bags (being a single person household I maybe produce around two small bags every week (so the bin is massively oversized for my use). Being picked up by the garbage truck every 2 weeks.
2. Everything that's left over after sorting out:
Paper packaging.
Plastic packaging.
Metal packaging.
Glass packaging (sorted as colored and uncolored).
Being picked up by the garbage truck every 4 weeks.
At this moment we have to take the above by our selfes to the recycling station. Plans are that we will be able to sort and dispose of them in various bins at home, and having them picked up by the garbage truck, as well.
And btw, the garbage trucks are totally automized, the driver never gets out of the truck. The emptying is totally done remotely from inside the truck.
But it's my responsibility to put the bins "in position" by the road when it's time for emptying.
It would be interesting to know how this process is working where you live :-) Please share if you want!
