The Trash on Lesvos - Dépôtoir sur Lesbos

Lesvos Island was one of the central points of the refugee crisis in Europe as thousands of boats left Turkey to cross the Aegean Sea and land its shores. This means thousands of discarded boats and life jackets that accumulated on the island and while much has been cleaned, the famous landfill mountain is still there, hidden and not about to get taken care of.
------------------
L'ile de Lesbos était un point névralgique de la crise des réfugiés en Europe. Des milliers de bateaux pneumatiques sont arrivés sur ses rives, résultant en une crise environnementale en plus de la crise humaine. Aujourd'hui, même si un grand nettoyage a été fait, il reste encore des traces et une énorme montagne de gilets et de bateaux, cachés des regards et des solutions potentielles.
