For the 18.5 million people who live in the Sao Paulo metropolitan region, it s a time bomb that could explode any moment, says Maria Luisa Ribeiro, coordinator of the Waters Network, an initiative of the local environmental group SOS Mata Atlantica Foundation to promote communication and social participation in national wate…

He asks me almost every day why he has to take these same drugs all the time. At first, I told him that he had a persistent headache but when I went away for a week, he skipped (the medication) for two days and then protested that he had had no headache, said Banda, a housewife in the Zambian capital, Lusaka.
So as a family, we have now had to convince him …
