Live 8 Dead.



The top picture is of "what is estimated to be between 150 and 650 tonnes of assorted trash (at 3 kilos (6.6 pounds) per person)". That is the aftermath of Live 8. It is the largest amount of waste left after a concert ever. The other picture is the wasted leftover bread that was not used during Live 8. It is now garbage. Live 8 was a benefit concert for African poverty and hunger.
