Teresita Gapayao, 51, a scavenger for 12 years, wades through garbage using a makeshift raft made from styrofoam on the Estero de Vitas tiver in Tondo, Manila on April 21, 2016. Gapayao collects plastic bottles and anything that can be sold to junkshops as a living earning an average of 3 USD a day. The annual Earth Day event which will be celebrated on April 22, marking its 46th year, is a global movement calling for environmental protection. (Photo by Noel Celis/AFP Photo)
