Recycling bins are seen at the Centre for Alternative Technology in Wales
Recycling bins are seen at the Centre for Alternative Technology in Machynlleth, Wales March 25, 2010. The Centre for Alternative Technology (CAT), a sprawling eco-complex set up during the 1974 oil crisis, will publish proposals in June to eliminate emissions from oil, gas and coal. While Britain was the first country to set legally-binding targets to cut emissions, by 80 percent from 1990 levels by 2050, CATs strategy goes even further. Picture taken March 25, 2010.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a row of recycling bins at the Centre for Alternative Technology in Machynlleth, Wales. The image, captured by Stefan Wermuth on March 25,2010, perfectly encapsulates the center's commitment to environmental sustainability. The Centre for Alternative Technology (CAT) was established during the oil crisis in 1974 and has since become a sprawling eco-complex dedicated to finding innovative solutions to combat climate change. In June of that year, CAT announced its groundbreaking proposals aimed at completely eliminating emissions from oil, gas, and coal – an ambitious goal that surpasses even Britain's legally-binding targets. As we gaze upon this photograph today, it serves as a powerful reminder of the urgent need to prioritize sustainable practices in our daily lives. The neatly arranged recycling bins symbolize our collective responsibility to reduce waste and recycle materials whenever possible. Wales' Centre for Alternative Technology stands as a beacon of hope amidst mounting environmental challenges. It not only educates visitors about renewable energy sources but also inspires them to take action towards building a greener future. Stefan Wermuth's skillful composition captures both the simplicity and significance of these recycling bins against the backdrop of CAT's eco-complex. This image is not just a snapshot frozen in time; it represents an ongoing commitment towards creating a more environmentally conscious society – one bin at a time.
