    Maybe reallocating some of the resorts revenues to professional waste management would help. Don't know what the plan was. Hey we charge you a fortune to stay on our islands and the waste...huh...expensive...well dump it somewhere...won't be a problem as we have abundant land masses....


    Honestly the landfill idea has something to it. You could shred the waste and combine it with binding substances and create new lands.

    Well I reckon since you no longer have to accomplish anything to win a Nobel, you just have a plan that sounds OK, I'm in with a shot.

    So who's going to nominate Milphotos for a Nobel Prize?

    I found it on Google Earth on an industrial zoned artificial island called Thilafushi. The dump is about a square kilometer in size. It looks manageable even for a small community. No perspective from BBC drama-cam.

    Thilafushi, Maldives takes you to it on Google Earth search.
