Manifesto
Heavy Trash is an anonymous arts organization of architects, artists, and urban planners, which started in LA. Heavy Trash creates large, disposable art objects that draw community and media attention to specific urban issues. By explaining a particular urban problem and suggesting a solution, Heavy Trash seeks to provoke dialogue among citizens. Lets start on HERE in Lancaster County!! http://heavytrash.blogspot.com/2005/04/manifesto.html
THEIR Next Project was Forever Landfill>>>
LOS ANGELES - In unrelated news, urbanist pranksters Heavy Trash are at it again. This time they're calling attention to the wastefulness of Angelenos who dispose of "940,000 tons of trash annually." And where does the trash go? After the dumpster, we mean. The majority of us have no clue. Heavy Trash wants to make sure you know that there's a place out there for your refuse through the Forever Landfill. [CurbedWire Inbox]

My plastic crap gets made from oil, which gets pumped out of the ground. It then gets used by me until it breaks or wears out or whatever and I throw it out. Then it goes back into the ground.
It's part of the natural cycle of consumer goods, don't get bent out of shape that humans take stuff out of the ground, modify it, use it, and put it back in the ground, that's just dumb.
my God, architects and urban planners. I could just see the dopey eyewear frames and talk of light rail and blobitecture. BOOORING.
