Abstract
Mitchell Joachim calls for a radical revision of our approach to waste management. Rather than the low-level recycling that goes on through municipal authorities, he advocates the proactive use of waste to regenerate our cities. This he illustrates with Terreform One + Terrefuge's Rapid Re(f)use and Homeway projects that aim ‘to capture, reduce and redesign New York's refuse infrastructure’.
