Volgermeerpolder




The visible surface of a landscape is good at hiding its underlying secrets. Volgermeerpolder is a nature reserve located above Amsterdam. Beside being a nature reserve, it is also the most polluted place in the Netherland, where chemical and household waste was dumped for decades. The waste was so severe that parts of it are left behind, and covered up with foil to encapsule the toxic soil.
