Landfill Transforms Into Landscape?

Picture this: Layers and mountains of dirty wrappers, napkins, and papers. Mounted atop those mountains, are moth eaten mattresses, worn and dirty of couches, broken stoves, TVs, toilets, refrigerators. Anything that people do not want anymore, either broken, torn, dirty or stained, that are thrown away and put into a certain place. Now imagine all that garbage transformed into a green and agricultural National Park! This landscape restoration named 'The Valley of Joan', has won the Energy, Waste and Recycling category at the 2008 World Architecture Festival in Barcelona, Spain. The Valley of Joan project was conducted in 200, and just completed earlier this year. It is a remarkable recovery from a polluted dump, back into natrual nature. Recreating the landscape after pouring hundreds of thousands of pounds of garbage onto the field is a gracious task to do. I think that this act, by far, helps our environment rebuild itself and regain it's natrual look, before all of our waste overpowered the nature.
