Talking Rubbish: Interview At Lanzarote’s Dump

Almost everything you throw away on Lanzarote ends up in the heart of the island, at the Environmental Complex located in the volcano of Zonzamas. Each month, 4,000 refuse lorries pass through the white gate to deposit rubbish created by 160,000 residents and the 80,000 tourists who are on the island at any given time. We entered the volcano last month to meet the Cabildo’s Solid Waste councillor, Domingo Cejas.
