‘Empty buckets’ in Henan say no to Ice Bucket Challenge
Dozens of people in the drought-hit Henan Province are protesting
against the Ice Bucket Challenge, which has become a global viral trend
Armed with empty buckets, bowls and other containers, the protesters stood
outside the Spring Temple Buddha in Lushan County on Friday.
The Chinese characters on their clothes read: “Henan, please say no to the
Ice Bucket Challenge.”
The province is experiencing its worst drought since 1951.
Nearly 19 million people have been affected by the drought.
With that in mind, protesters are calling for water to be saved and
other sensible means to be used to help patients of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS).
