As Bakken leads a tour around the edges of the landfill, he points out a trash-strewn creek flowing between the raw piles of waste and a surprisingly vibrant thatch of mangroves. Sprigs of jatropha - a tropical shrub that can be harvested to produce clean biodiesel - are already growing on the slopes of garbage. "We're going to green this landfill," says Bakken.
