The half moons are for retaining water on gentle slopes, with the flat side pointed uphill. The major function besides water retention is to prevent topsoil erosion by wind and water. They still need about two feet of annual rainfall and some soil fertility to work.

There's a similar method for highly degraded and hardened soil called a 'zaï hole' where one foot deep holes are bored at regular intervals and filled with compost. This, combined with shallow half moon walls built similar to the crescents pictured above provide a low-dig method with broader application and similar results.

I will say that tineye only works for photos. If you want an art reverse search then saucenao works well.

I don't know what's with people thinking trains are full of drugs and criminals. There's...security guards on trains.

And like, I HAVE seen people using meth in big train stations and sometimes there are weird people on busses but. They're not doing drugs on the bus. They're not actually bothering anyone
