  • These are workers' villas in wealthy Huaxi village in 2008. Some of the industries of Huaxi Village (Farmers Village) are in the background. This co-op has been a model farm for 45 years. They were capitalists before it was legal in China. They started factories, but worked in them with no windows in secret. When government officials came to inspect, they sent all the workers out to the fields and disguised the factories. Huaxi became the first and most successful capitalist exploitation of the collective. This model farm became so successful they started selling shares in the 60's. They sold the shares "underground" The residents now buy shares... or work for shares to purchase these homes.  When shares were first offered, they went for 2000RMB, now they go for 30,000 RMB. In 2008, 30,000 officials visited this place to see how it runs effectively. There are not many model farms left in China, and none with this wealth. The model farm runs about 80 factories and In 2008, Huaxi was held up by the government as the most successful transition from farmer to the socialist/capitalist world. But more recently, in the face of economic pressures, Huaxi Village has gone bankrupt.

About half of Uganda's population is under 15 and life expectancy is about 50.  Population has doubled from 1990 to now.

St. Bernards are cared for by a foundation in Martigny, France.

  • The Kakuma Refugee Camp is near Lake Turkana and the northern border of Kenya. 123K  people have lived in this camp since the beginning of the war between Sudan and Ethiopia and have continued to live there thru the 20 year conflict in South Sudan. The town of Kakuma has grown to 70,000 because of the UN presence. Turkana are the local tribal people and would normally be agrarian but they now spend their time cutting firewood and making charcoal for the refugees in the camp. The exchange is generally for food. There are many Nuer and Dinkas in this camp as well as DRC folks from Kivu and Goma primarily.

  • Informal plastic waste worker makes his rounds in very early morning in Varanasi, India because the city temperatures rise in unbearable heat during the day. This is the Beniyapark neighborhood. Varanasi has government trash workers but not nearly enough for the 1.2 million population and all the tourists. So people put their trash on the street and wait for informal trash workers/recyclers or some government worker to come by and clean up the street. It’s not a great system. Pappu is part of the informal trash picker system and he collects plastic waste to recycle.

  • In Dhaka, Bangladesh, laborers sort through piles of discarded plastic bottles at a recycling center. Plastic waste and global warming are companion threats. People’s need for clean drinking water increases as temperatures rise. The size of this center in Dhaka is equivalent to three football fields. In the winter when I made this photograph, only one of the football fields was filled with plastic waste. In the summer when everyone drinks more bottled water because of the excessive heat in a Bangladesh summer, all three football fields are filled with plastic waste. The slough next to this informal factory is filled with the overburden that is either shoved away or is blown by the wind into the neighboring watershed.

They won but little has changed (the company bought a street sweeper for the community) but it was a moral victory for a group of people who saw property values plummet in the black cloud that hung over their town. None of the 152 mostly retirees had ever been involved in a lawsuit.

  • A woman arranges items on a car to sell at a roadside flea market. West Virginians have always lived with the backdrop of the coal train passing by and money has gone out of town on that train—it is no coincidence that some of the poorest people in the US live in coal country. <br />
One of the main poverty issues of Appalachia stems from the fact that the employed population makes less money that others in the U.S. which was a trade off for other assets like a rich family life.

  • I was photographing this alley because it had plastic trash around 4AM and these two guys came out of their homes and placed their trash on the street… right in front of me. This is the basic problem… Varanasi has government trash workers but not nearly enough for the 1.2 million population. So people put their trash on the street and wait for informal trash workers/recyclers or some government worker to come by and clean up the street. It’s not a great system.
