Waist Land 1- 6

A Farmer walks his land. It should have potatoes in the soil sucking up rich nutrients. Today there are none. WHat escape disaster was sold on the street markets, and from there homes and hotels for tourist. If you have had a potato from India you quickly realize they tase strange, and you leave them on your plate and pray the spicy foods can wash away the taste in your mouth.

The Problem is that there is a fight going on between the people that neighboring villages which are all about agriculture the Coke factory that release its waist chemicals into the earth gets into the water system.

Coke is called dirty coke now, its seen in graffiti from the road side as you near the plant. It's the people's way of spreading the news which is rejected by the media. People die, people become deformed, mental illness becomes a factor.

The water is the one thing that the villages need. To bath, to drink, to cook, to make produce, to have a income for their children to enter schools, where they might learn english and not just hindu.

    At first I thought this man looked like a Native American ?
    Great shot of the dry parched earth and the future for these people depends on water to grow crops
