VBS Strikes Again

My favorite website for about the last year has been Vice Magazine. I haven't really looked at the hard copy that they've published, but the online bits are excellent. A while ago I posted the story about the floating garbage island the size of Texas that's milling about in our oceans. Truly nasty stuff. That was from Vice's video section. Now, they've put up a five part series (don't worry, they're only five minutes each) about the single gigantic garbage dump (the Payatas) in the Manila, the capitol of the Philippines. This is a series not only about the dump itself, but about the thousands of people who live and scavenge within it on a daily basis.
