What cleaning up a whole bunch of hazardous materials following a tsunami looks like

My friend Seth is a… well, I don’t know what his job title is actually, but I do know that he cleans up toxic stuff for a living.  He recently flew out to American Samoa to take care of the chemical mess following the tsunami there.  There’s a big photo gallery depicting their work on the project here.  Interesting, dirty stuff.

My incredibly talented friend Dru Donovan has some photos in the most recent New York Times Magazine as part of this story about California food banks.  This is her second time appearing there — this was the first (ties in nicely with the glaciers from the last post actually).  Things like this make me love the world just a little bit more. Side note: I’ll be designing a website for Dru soon-ish.  Thinking of using the awesome-looking Cargo portfolio thingy that’s powering (and I believe founded/run by) one of my favorite blogs ever.
