Kampala is the capital city of Uganda and it is located in the central region of the country. It has an area of about 238 square kilometers, a big part of which was once a wetland. Geographically Kampala is referred to as a city of seven hills separated by valleys with swamps and streams also called wetlands. Today the wetlands in this area is on the verge of extinction as they are being threatened by the increasing population in the city.

Lake Uru Uru, is the smaller brother of lake Poopó in the Oruro Department, Bolivia. Together they form a valuable RAMSAR-site since July 2002. A place where both, indigneous people and endemic and endangered birds, such as the Chilean flamingo, can find their food Although this beautiful landscape seems perfect (as some the pictures may suggest): Blue water, open sky, nature and people living peacefuly together. There is also a counterside. Both the lakes got heavily contaminated because of various factors. Mining activities in the sorrounding region, bad management of sewer coming from te city of Oruro and a too low awareness about waste management. Due to the contamination hundreds of thousands of fish have died in November 2014. Meaning an inmense loss of food and economic resources for the local indigenous Uru population in the region. On top of that also the danger of extinction for the red list species and the local Uru people living in this area.On the field trip we where undertaking we met a girl walking along a deserted road going through the Lago Uru Uru area. Driving past the heavily contaminated wetlands this only dramaticised the whole picture. We took the girl with us to the farm she and her mother where working that day at the end of the road where the road ends in the Lago Uru Uru. The farm situated in the little traditional Uru-houses, only less than a mile away from the heavily contaminated fields, keeps both sheeps and cows living alongside of the lake. Also a large variety of bird-species can be spotted in this area. Delivering really pittoresque images. On the other hand stories were told by the farmer that the sheep were being born more and more in deformed way. Also the farms’ cows where faced with more and more miscarriages. The cause for these severe problems for the Uru-population is not really hard to find since the proof is literally around the corner.

I visited this wetland in the summer of 2015. I was in the Ankara Province of Turkey studying the Northern Anatolian Fault, but my professor stopped us on our way to our field site to show us the Cayirhan Bird Sanctuary. He explained to us that it was formed by an ancient ocean and is now home to 179 bird species. In the distance I could see the Kizilbar Formation, Paleocene-Low Eocene in age. The red litharenite was remarkable against the micrite and mudstone and reflecting a perfect mirror image in the water, and when the light hit it just right it reminded me of a sunrise. However what was more striking than the beauty of the Bird Sanctuary was the fact that days before I had toured a Turkish coal mine that was just a couple of miles up the road. I was still coming to terms with having been geared up and sent 250 meters underground for a process that exploits the earth natural resources. In my mind the Bird Sanctuary juxtaposition with the Coal Mine is a reflection on the way humans choose to use and interact with the earth around them.
