Bali's largest landfill bans organic waste from April, causing trash to accumulate in streets

Bali's largest landfill was declared off-limits for organic waste beginning April, as the government enforces a longstanding ban on open tips.

With no immediate alternatives provided, trash is piling up in streets, attracting rats, or being burned by residents, creating smoke that has prompted health concerns.

The accumulating waste is affecting the resort island famed for its natural beauty, with stench from trash bespoiling parts of Bali.
