Yu Zhen Jun, a farmer, washes his hands after planting seed in hit corn field outside Liumao, China on May 28, 2016. Jun describes the air and soil as “maitai”, or filthy, a result of the contamination caused by a nearby graphite factory owned by Aoyu. Jun says his crop yield has decreased as a result of the pollution. (Photo by Michael Robinson Chavez/The Washington Post)
