Is there a map of water areas that was once dry to show these ads work or are the charities we donate to playing 99 for me 1 for you. We know all charities hold donations for a year in a high intrest bank account and keep the intrest oxfam is the worst for it. Dont hate on somebody who fills a whole basin of water for one glass. Ask the people committed to improving it for the results and then ask who would be better trusted. Humans can do alot in 20yrs so I cant see why africa is still dry. Look at the effort dubia does to keep the dessart out of the city. Getting to the moon ect.
