Megacities and Pollution<\/em> is a photodocumentary project that analyzes three of the greatest environmental challenges of the 21st century: plastic waste, poor air quality and water pollution. The project focuses on three megacities in Asia, the most populated continent in the world: Metro Manila, Delhi and Jakarta.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n

The densely populated metropolitan area of Manila<\/strong>, in the Philippines, is a global plastic leakage hotspot with serious impacts on the health of the ocean.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n

New<\/strong> Delhi<\/strong> is the capital city with the worst air quality of the world, while India is home to fourteen of the twenty cities with the most polluted air on the planet.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n

And Jakarta<\/strong>, in Indonesia, is the fastest sinking capital city in the world, a consequence of erosion resulting from the urgent demand for clean water and rising sea levels caused by global warming.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n

What is happening in these cities?<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n

What are the causes of these extreme levels of pollution?<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n

What about the consequences for the population?<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n
