乾旱的亞馬遜

亞馬遜河正因氣候變遷而引起的嚴重乾旱而創下史上最低水位。這場生態災難威脅著生物多樣性，破壞生態系統，也影響依賴河流維生的在地社群。隨著乾旱加劇，許多居民被迫面對著是否要放棄家園與生計，遷往都市的艱難抉擇，而這將永久地改變當地的社會結構。這項攝影計畫使經常抽象或難被呈現的氣候變遷帶來的影響，變成實在而具體的現實，因而形塑出與大自然緊緊相連的脆弱社區的未來。

Droughts in the Amazon

The Amazon River is experiencing record low-water levels due to severe drought intensified by climate change. This ecological crisis threatens biodiversity, disrupts ecosystems, and impacts local communities reliant on rivers for survival. As droughts intensify, many settlers face the difficult choice of abandoning their land and livelihoods for urban areas, changing the social fabric of this region permanently. This project makes the effects of climate change, which can so often be abstract or difficult to represent, appear as a tangible and concrete reality shaping the futures of vulnerable communities closely connected with the natural world.

A young man brings food to his mother who lives in the village of Manacapuru. The village was once accessible by boat, but because of the drought, he must walk two kilometers along the dry riverbed of the Solimões River to reach her. Amazonas, Brazil, 5 October 2024
