A man prepares to throw a handful of dirt into a bucket after scooping it from the bottom of the polluted Guaire River, which runs through Caracas, Venezuela, Friday, May 10, 2019. Thousands of people, called “Garimpeiros”, look for scraps of copper, gold or silver carried by the river, that they can sell to make a living in this South American country that is in the midst of a severe economic and political crisis.
