A cowherd guides his cattle across the dry riverbed of the Jamuna River in Rajbari, Dhaka, Bangladesh, on February 22, 2025. The seasonal drying of the river exposes vast sandbars (chars), disrupting local livelihoods and forcing herders to travel long distances in search of water and grazing land. These shifting landscapes, shaped by monsoon floods and dry-season erosion, illustrate the fragile ecological balance in the Jamuna River basin. As climate variability intensifies, the region faces growing challenges in sustaining both human and animal populations.

The aftermath of the wildfires in Evia Island, one of the largest environmental disasters in the country. Lumberjacks from other regions of Greece are cutting trees to let the forest be reborn, but also working in the burned areas to prevent further soil erosion, a damage that is leading to dangerous landslides and floods. Scientists claim the wildfires were caused by climate change after a long period of dry weather with record high temperatures in the south of Europe and the Mediterranean area, causing the wildfires. Local people are devastated as the economy was affected by the fire, it was strongly connected with nature and the forest for honey or resin production but also for tourism as the area was a popular nature destination for Greek and foreigners for the thick forest and the mountain activities.
