Status Updates From The Water Defenders: How Or...

'The popular wisdom on the environment is that it is wealthier people in richer countries who care the most. The poor, it is often argued, cannot afford to worry about the environment. What then led [the ordinary citizens], poorer farmers to become water defenders, to lead the charge to protect watersheds in El Salvador?'

This is actually really insightful. This wasn’t something that I have ever had any knowledge about, so I’m happy to be expanding my knowledge into the impacts of resource extraction and the mobilization of the water defenders in El Salvador

It's so appalling how men can see the increasing potential for profit in something but stay blind in the more alarming, destructive impact it would bring. I don't wanna go around here screaming CAPITALISM SUCKS but yeah capitalism is evil.

Storytelling-wise, this is really good and engaging. Content-wise, very informative and inspiring. It really shows what big shifts collective action can make.
