In the near future the Maldives will be flooded with a bunch of garbage

The tourism industry in the Maldives is one of the most developed in the world, because it is not strange that a lot of debris is formed. And how do You think the government of Maldives solves this problem? Refuse is transported to a separate island — Thilafushi.
And maybe no one would know and not know, if not for the news that the garbage disposal on the island was suspended, as there has accumulated a huge amount of it, and began the pollution of the ocean. Waste gets into the water, and join the famous Pacific garbage dump of the island.





What is even more interesting, this artificial island called Thilafushi located just 7 kilometers from the capital of the Maldives. But this is not a resort, there's no white sand and clear water — instead, you can find just a mountain of garbage.



The main suppliers of waste — luxury hotels. In the piles of garbage to dig, the locals who are trying to find anything edible or saleable. And the island is often a dirty cloud of smog. Now the government is trying to undertake measures for removal and disposal of excess garbage. What would it be? Maybe you will find some new favourite island.
