    • Synopsis
    • Trashed - No Place For Waste. Starring Jeremy Irons, looks at the risks to the food chain and the
      environment through pollution of our air, land and sea by waste. The film reveals surprising truths about
      very immediate and potent dangers to our health. It is a global conversation from Iceland to Indonesia
      between the film star Jeremy Irons and scientists, politicians and ordinary individuals whose health and
      livelihoods have been fundamentally affected by waste pollution. Visually and emotionally the film is both
      horrific and beautiful: an interplay of human interest and political wake-up call. But it ends on a message
      of hope: showing how the risks to our survival can easily be averted through sustainable approaches that
      provide far more employment than the current 'waste industry'.
