On 3 July 2019 in Bangladesh, a young boy navigates a river swollen from days of monsoon rain. He’s collecting plastic bottles washed into the river by floods. He sells the plastic to recyclers and uses the money to help his family to purchase vegetables and fish, to complement their diet of rice and dahl.
