Iraq bans farming summer crops as water crisis grows dire
Iraq, USA | video • 5min • looping | 2018
The human body is made up mostly of water. It takes water to grow every food those bodies consume. During the summer of 2018 the Iraqi Government banned farmers from planting certain cereal crops due to water shortages. Many in the west look to Mesopotamia as the origin of civilization, but history does not remain stagnant, if what happened there is our collective past, what is happening now is also our future.
