  • Precast concrete pipes are prepared for distribution by a Mexican-born employee at Hanson Pipe & Products, Grand Prairie, Texas, USA. He cleans and inspects the tongue and groove seals of the upturned pipes wearing an obligatory hard hat and blue overalls. Precast concrete is made from a reusable mold or "form" and cured in a controlled environment, then transported to the construction site and lifted into place. Used in the construction of commercial building components, bridges, manholes and retaining walls, these products are the strongest pipe available, designed and plant tested to resist any load required with a design life of 70-100 years. ..

  • A woman farmer taps dripping resin from a rubber tree in a plantation on Pulau Langkawi Island, Malaysia. We see the lady surrounded by even rows of trees, all carefully spaced when planted. Each cool evening the tapper removes a thin layer of bark along a downward half spiral on the tree trunk. She makes an incision in the bark of the tree and fluid then drains into a collecting vessel. If done carefully and with skill, this tapping panel will yield latex for up to 5 years. Malaysia is one of the top exporters of natural rubber. Langkawi is an archipelago of 99 islands in the Andaman Sea, some 30 km off the mainland coast of northwestern Malaysia.

  • A local man carries electric cabling uphill on the Annapurna Sanctuary trekking route in central Nepal. With few roads that can transport supplies and raw materials up to remote foothill communities, the only way is often to carry what one needs on the back or by yak. The paths are even but often very steep in places so stamina and endurance are needed to get even modest weights uphill. Nepalis up here often want newer technology and basic electricity to power lights and showers although solar power is another answer.
