This image depicts a heavily polluted urban waterway, likely a river or canal, within Nairobi, Kenya. The waterway itself is dark brown and appears turbid, with visible debris floating on its surface. The left bank is densely vegetated with tall green reeds and various bushes, with a concrete retaining wall visible beneath the foliage. In the upper left background, a light-colored, multi-story building is partially visible, indicating an urban setting. The right bank, occupying the majority of the foreground, is covered by an extensive accumulation of mixed solid waste that extends to the water's edge. This refuse pile includes a significant stack of discarded wooden pallets on the far right. Closer to the water, the debris consists of numerous fragments of light blue foam material, various plastic bags (white, blue, and black), textiles, organic matter resembling dried corn husks and plant debris, and miscellaneous unidentifiable refuse. No human subjects are present in the scene. The sky is overcast.
