    The national park of Zhangjiajie in central China is famous for the
    towering sandstone pillars that inspired the alternate universe in the
    2009 blockbuster "Avatar." But in recent weeks, the area has become
    known for its trash-filled caves.

    A friend of mine shared pictures smuggled out of China, where during
    road work, you can see 90's printers and other e-waste just buried under
    layers of asphalt as road fill. That's how the Chinese "recycle".
