This visualization depicts that a river that had been running for 139 years got dried in Summer 2016. Though, the reiver still carries a form of water, this time, only wastewater. The ethnographer underlines how this river has been a common source utilized by the people to meet their daily needs of water. We also learn that people has continued to approach river filled with wastewater to meet their needs... At the first sight, I felt the depseration, and then, began thinking about that "water scarcity" is not only about "lack" but also creates a form of "excess" (e.g., wastewater).
