Hello:
I'll be catching up with what I have been missing. I flipped when I saw photos of dry riverbeds in the Amazon Basin.
On the other side of the street from where my uncle lives, in Copacabana, a garbage truck stops at around midnight. Kids and mothers come out of the blue to pick from the garbage. Food with "sell by" overdue is dumped. They pick it. At least here in the USA food close to expiration date is sold for cut rate prices.

Amazing! because this time I published, before you, this image on my blog (2 or 3 days ago) and the original reference is from Daily Mail:

Such a pollution it is very sad!
Best regards,
Moua,
It is very sad for two reasons. First being the pollution itself, secondly this poor man who gleans his livelihood from the refuse.
This picture is shocking and terribly sad..
Shocking on many levels.
This is the kind of picture that leaves you speechless...actions speak louder than words.
This picture reminds me of one I found a few weeks ago...
