Pomona Rubbish Dump

Zimbabwe / Harare /
 dump, waste

This incessantly smouldering mound of garbage and plastic waste adds a chemical bite to the air on the surrounding farms (west) and golf course (north) in the winter, and the vile stench of festering magots and rotting vegetable matter in the summer. Not your ideal place for a picnic, though perfectly suited to describing Zimbabwe's environmental care policies.
