Il 22 marzo 2017 si celebra la Giornata mondiale dell’acqua. Tema di quest’anno: le acque reflue e il loro riutilizzo. Nel mondo 923 milioni di persone non hanno accesso a fonti di acqua potabile sicura: 319 milioni di abitanti dell’Africa Sub-Sahariana (il 32% della popolazione), 554 milioni di asiatici (il 12,5% della popolazione), e 50 milioni di sudamericani (l’8% della popolazione) non hanno accesso a fonti di acqua potabile sicura. Gli scatti fotografici in India documentano la quotidianità di 78 milioni di persone, che rappresentano circa il 5% di un Paese che conta 1 miliardo e 300 milioni di abitanti, impossibilitati alla certezza di avere fonti di acque sicure e pulite.
