Glass Mountains

In this Tuesday, Jan. 26, 2016 photo, a worker pushes a wheelbarrow with broken glass bottles at the Phoenicia Glass Works Ltd. factory in the southern Israeli town of Yeruham. Factory workers grind these rejects into shards and pile them outside. Recycled glass bottles from across the country are sent here and ground up, too. The glass pieces are shoveled into the ovens to be fired into new glass bottles. Sand, the basic ingredient of glass, is hauled in from a nearby desert quarry. (AP Photo/Oded Balilty)
