Poverty and inequality has been manufactured here by the European invasion and colonisation policies, then by the US’s historic and current imperialist agenda.
I’m creating a compost toilet in my home. It’s made from 19 litre paint buckets and a toilet seat, and I dry corn husks from the street market to use as the composting substrate. I enjoy saving water and growing vegetables, because I want to have a healthy, kind relationship with the planet.
But the composting toilet hasn’t been a totally free choice. Where I live, in Puebla, Mexico, there are extreme water shortages – even during the short rainy season. Myself and others in my building receive well below the recommended human rights minimum ofper person of water, necessary to meet basic needs like showering, washing, and cooking. The reasons for the water shortages are complex, but a main cause is that water here is being diverted to industrial use.
