A man waters his horse, an animal central to Sioux culture.

The Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) is a 1,886-kilometer-long underground oil pipeline project designed to transport oil from North Dakota to a shipping terminal in Illinois, USA. By 2016, most of the pipeline was complete, but the section closest to the Standing Rock Sioux reservation still awaited federal approval. The Standing Rock Sioux people opposed the DAPL, fearing water contamination and damage to sacred tribal sites. Large protests at Lake Oahe gained national and international attention.

在巴西，患有小頭症的新生兒人數急遽增加，這是一種與茲卡病毒有關的疾病。患有此種疾病的嬰兒出生時頭顱就異常的小，或者是一出生頭部就停止生長。由蚊子傳播的茲卡病毒通常會導致輕微的類流感症狀，它和小頭症此罕見疾病的實際關聯則尚未得到全盤的了解。世界衛生組織從2015年疾病爆發之初到2016年底，共紀錄了2,289起與茲卡病毒相關的小頭症病例，並發表聲明稱茲卡病毒是國際公衛緊急事件。

Heloá’s grandmother gives her a bottle of milk.

Brazil saw a dramatic increase in numbers of babies born with microcephaly, a condition linked to the Zika virus. Babies with the condition are born with an abnormally small head, or the head stops growing at birth. The Zika virus, transmitted by mosquitoes, generally causes mild, flu-like symptoms, and the exact causal link to microcephaly—an otherwise rare condition—is not fully understood. The World Health Organization recorded 2,289 Zika-linked microcephaly cases in Brazil from the beginning of the outbreak in 2015 to the end of 2016, and declared the Zika virus an international public health emergency.
