I didn't even know this was happening in South Africa- it's just bad news after bad news everywhere you turn. The water crisis in Jackson, Mississippi is so upsetting, enraging...I don't actually have the words. It is easier to read about bad news in your newsletter though because I love your writing, and the photos and videos are beautiful. So thank you :-)
Thank you. I didn't know this was going on on South Africa either until Jesse reached out. These are some difficult times, aren't they? Glad to be traversing them together though.
The Wilson Center is planning a webcast for next week, and has this to say about the topic:
"Russia’s war in Ukraine has devastated the country’s water and sanitation infrastructure. Civilian water supply and treatment have been exposed to collateral damage, wielded as weapons through targeted attacks, and strained by large population movements and diminished capacity as water operators take up arms to protect their country. This has enormous implications for Ukraine’s short and long-term health, agricultural, and energy systems, and economic well-being."

It is horrifying watching any population suffer, isn't it? Certainly hoping for the best for Ukraine too.
