Amazon Drought

Cacau Pirera (Amazonas), 4th Oct 2023 - Boats and floating houses run aground along the lakes and streams of Cacau Pirera, Amazonas. After the Amazon River dropped 10 meters in just over a month, hundreds of communities became unreachable by conventional means of transportation. This situation has forced residents into long walks to reach their homes, often carrying essential goods and supplies. (Photo by Gustavo Basso/NurPhoto)
