This is a series of reduction lino prints I did a few years ago. There is about 10 different cuts and lots of masks. I still have not finished them :-( I do plan on doing so though!
In Myanmar's central dry zone, many villages and their inhabitants are in danger. Due to climate change, which causes both excessive rainfall and prolonged droughts, the Irawaddy river is bursting its banks more often and more destructively.
Hundreds of acres are now permanently underwater, farmers have lost their land and livelihood and many villagers have lost their homes.
Those who have been able to reconstruct their houses away from the flood-prone areas are now in danger of losing their homes again. Moving away even further is not an option for most, since the river they now fear, is also the main source of livelihood of this community of farmers and fishermen.
Cordaid helps the community by mapping the risks and creating contingency and mitigation plans following a proven disaster risk reduction method.
The villagers themselves express and document their greatest worries and needs, after which Cordaid's local resilience partners help the community to find a solution to their problems.
This could entail planting trees to prevent the soil from eroding or the construction of dikes to stop the floods, just to name a few examples.

Oxford Food Bank volunteers Jeff & Riki get ready to deliver rescued food to a community centre. The Oxford Food Bank is a food charity that relies on volunteers seven days a week and every day of the year. Its double mission is to feed the community and protect the environment. The charity collects surplus food from local supermarkets and wholesalers and delivers it for free to around 60 registered charities in the Oxford area. Even though the food received is rejected by supermarkets as "surplus" food, it is good quality food that would have been thrown away - most often because of a date stamped on it. "Best Before" is still good after.

Note: This photo is part of an ongoing project on food waste that I have been zooming in over the past years. Most of these photos have never been published anywhere and have sat on an external hard-drive for too long. I decided to use more of Flickr, so over the next months I will be uploading here photos taken for the project (aiming at one-per-day). If you're interested in the subject, keep an eye on the "Love Food Not Waste" album.

While one billion people across the planet suffer from hunger, the amount of food wastage taking place every single day in developed countries is obscene. With up to a third of all food thrown away, producing food simply to bin it is a waste of all those precious resources – land, water, energy – that were put into growing, processing and transporting it.
My photo project, ‘Love Food Not Waste’, illustrates some of the levels of the food waste reduction pyramid: Feeding Landfills is the lowest level in the hierarchy and should be illegal; Feeding AD Plants, which, despite not being the best way of dealing with surplus food, at least generates modest amounts of energy, and also fertiliser; and Feeding Bellies, where food waste heroes such as freegans and food charities help rescue some of the surplus food and re-distribute it to people in need.
Reduction stickers at Bayers Lake SuperStore. At first glance, these multivitamins look a little too well-priced to be true...
(We picked up the box and tried taking it through the checkout, but when we stopped the cashier after it scanned for $9.97, she said it looked like $9.97 and just offered to put it back for us if we didn't want to pay. =)
The only way to reduce the breasts is through surgery, no similar treatment cosmetic product and give good results and effective as expected.
While waiting for some polenta to cool down I decided to try out the reduction I made for it on some strawberries. The result was quite tasty.
Civil society representatives raised awareness of Indonesia's inhumane approach to punishment of people convicted of drug trafficking offences.
Less than a foot between his nose and her tail. There hasn't been even a hiss, let alone the usual love pats from Ms. Brown & Territorial. All good soft things to lay upon are found on the couch, so this is a natural progression.
