A person who lives next to the landfill poses for a picture at a landfill that is a huge emitter of Methane, a strong greenhouse gas on January 21, 2025 in Barisal, Bangladesh. The uncontrolled methane emissions released from landfills in Bangladesh are seen as one of the main contributors to the ongoing heatwave and rising temperatures across the country. The waste emanating from these sites, which pose a serious health threat, spreads to nearby neighborhoods and farms, while the lack of sufficient waste recycling facilities results in harmful substances leaching into the soil.
