Junkyard Planet by Adam Minter

How can garbage turn into gold? What does recycling have to do with globalization? Where does all that stuff we throw away go, anyway?
Adam Minter grew up in a family of scrap dealers in Minneapolis. He became a professional journalist and now serves as the Shanghai correspondent for Bloomberg World View, in addition to making regular contributions to the Atlantic, Foreign Policy, and other publications. He now lives in Shanghai and blogs at shanghaiscrap.com. Junkyard Planet is his first book.
