"contemporary modes of industrial production driven by economical and consumerist influences contribute to urbanization and the formation of waste landscapes meaning actual waste (such as municipal solid waste, sewage, scrap metal, and so on), wasted places (such as abandoned and/or contaminated sites) or wasteful places (such as oversized parking lots or duplicate big-box retail venues)."
