Exam: make an fashion editorial with the theme: climate change. I chose to focus on the rainy side of it.
A young woman arranges clothes on the clothesline of her house, a floating one located on the banks of the Rio Negro on the edge of the village of Cacau Pirêra, in Iranduba, Amazonas, Brazil, on April 6, 2021. Although floating, many houses of this type do not have the adequate structure to face the period of heavy rains in the Amazon, which can cause them to sink. The state of Amazonas is expecting a record high of its rivers. The Civil Defense has been monitoring all river channels in the state: Juruá, Purus, Solimões, Negro, Madeira and Amazonas.

I don't know who surprised who, in this shot. Exposed or overexposed. This little critter is out in the open. How would we feel in his place?

This week marks the beginning of the highly publicized United Nation Conference on Climate Change. Already marred by controversy and leaks; leaks and disinformation by industrialist interest in the rich nations trying to create doubt as to what is happening to our planet. Multi-national corporations in the industrial countries have gone to great length to derail the meeting even before it has started. These corporations have been funding front groups and the scientist they pay to deny the urgency of the scientific consensus on global warming and delay action to fix the problem. Creating confusion in what they dub Climategate.
We know that some of the countries most likely to suffer severe impact of climate change are the poor nations of the Third World, many have already seen deforestation, desertification, dwindling rain fall, and rising sea levels; with little resources to stop the advances of climate change and the enormous impact it will have on there fragile economies and population. We need to hold the industrialized nations responsible for the impending disaster and for the abuses to the environment caused by toxic pollution. The powerful nations need to put aside greed and do the right thing for our planet. It's the only one we have. Right?

This photo was taken from a Delta 747 from Japan to Detroit. A pity that I can not identify the location since I did not have a GPS with me.
If I am not too wrong, it is above Canada.

A youth chants “power to the people” during the peaceful climate strike protest in Leeds.
Inspired by Swedish activist Greta Thunberg, YouthStrike4Climate Leeds organised the protest. They skipped lessons on the last day of half term and encouraged adults to join them on a protest March through the city centre.
A press release from YouthStrike4Climate Leeds said: "2019 was the year when young people built an international movement of millions from nothing, demanding climate justice in countries across the world. 2020 must see this movement continue to grow as we enter a pivotal decade for the climate and our collective futures.
"This year has already seen Australia devastated by raging fires and Jakarta submerged by freak rainfall.
"This is just the beginning, if humanity doesn’t rapidly reduce emissions to prevent catastrophic global warming of more than 1.5 degrees, in line with the IPCC’s 2018 special report.
"For the UK, emissions must be cut by 6.6 per cent year on year in order to prevent catastrophic warming."

At the region that we visited, there was a very different climate. There, it was hot but at the same time it was wet.

Flooding will become more common as the oceans heat up. More storms and flooding. Ironic that Trump moves to Florida, which will see the worst flooding. Karma?
