The Tipping Floor

Episode 1 of 5

Round and round the recycling goes, where does it end up? Nobody knows. Oliver Franklin Wallis begins a deep dive into the murky world of waste. Read by Russ Bain.

Oliver Franklin Wallis has not written a book about rubbish, but about the far bigger concerns around how much waste humans are producing and what we do with it.

Unexpected twists in the journey find a strange beauty in the movement of a recycling plant and the surprising legacy of our waste. Among the trash, there is treasure and hope for a better way of processing our waste and a better future.

Written by Oliver Franklin-Wallis
