One of many of China's overwhelming challenges is that posed by waste management. The vast refuse deposits near Beijing will be discussed, including the dangers these pose, and the lives of people who have found an uncertain occupational niche therein.

This conference is in conjunction with the exhibit "Beijing Besieged: Wang Jiuliang's Urban Ecology Unhinged" on view at the IEAS Gallery March 10-June 10, 2011.
