This kid hawks a few bags of “pure water” @ 2 for 5 naira under the blazing African sun. He needs to hustle 60 bags to make a dollar.

I would like to know if this boy, experiencing water as a wholesale commodity will ever understand that living on a planet with 71% of surface covered by water means that the planet itself supports life on this planet, and that no one should have to worry about being thirsty. If young ones like this water bearer could be allowed to experience that truth, we could see the dawning of the Age of Aquarius and rejoice. I know his situation is desperate because he experiences the scarcity of water. It’s so sad that the ones responsible for destroying the earth’s fresh water, wrecking the oceans, and throwing a wrench in the spokes of the Earth’s water cycle will be able to hide from the problems they caused for 7 billion people
