No waste in San Narciso

[Tore Rye Andersen]

"She drove into San Narciso on a Sunday, in a rented Impala. Nothing 
was happening. She looked down a slope, needing to squint for the sunlight,
onto a vast sprawl of houses which had grown up all together, like a 
well-tended crop, from the dull brown earth; and she thought of the time
she'd opened a transistor radio to replace a battery and seen her first
printed circuit. The ordered swirl of houses and streets, from this high
angle, sprang at her now with the same unexpected clarity as the circuit
card had." (Lot 49, 24)

"The city will also attempt to reduce waste to zero. Biological waste will 
be used to create nutrient-rich soil and fertiliser, and some may also be 
utilised through waste incineration as an additional power source. Industrial 
waste, such as plastics and metals, will be recycled or re-purposed for other 
uses."
