Verdant Front  

A citizen science and documentary project

By Andy Nutzhorn and Michael Hitchner

This project covers several facets. On one hand, it is a documentary project with the goal of documenting the waste that befouls natural areas around the world. On another, it is a cleanup effort, designed to remove garbage from the environment. And finally, it aims to go beyond the visual aspects of garbage and detail the chemical and biological effects of garbage and pollution on the environment. 

The project will be made available in the form of a photo book upon completion.
