LOL! Actually they are! Some places are using landfills - smoothing over MOUNTAINS (ok, BIG hills) of waste into flat(er) land, soaking ‘em with something to make ‘em environmentally pure and then planting grass and trees etc. NYC did it with part of the somethingorother “Kills” land fill and also build a public park and playgrounds, softball fields and such along he Hudson, up near Harlem.
It’s interesting that these environmental landfill new land is being created in the poorer regions of the country.

Yep, Fresh Kills, I think? (creepy name now that I think of it)

I think Trump had some kind of plan to expand even further up along the Hudson? I can’t remember the details and I think the plan got canned anyway.
