A former landfill can be turned into a biodiversity-rich ecosystem

Costanera Sur in Buenos Aires, Argentina, is a great example how a former landfill can be turned into a biodiversity-rich ecosystem. The region has become a habitat for a variety of creatures. For example, the Rose Mallow and Brazilian orchid tree can be found here. Together, they demonstrate a one-of-a-kind mix of natural resilience and biological variety in the midst of a landfill site's historical context.
