Brazil is going through one of the worst climatic crisis ever seen.
i live in the southernmost state, Rio Grande do Sul. we have been suffering from extreme, nonstop rainstorms for a week now. the rivers are flooding, reaching 4-6 meters above their natural level. people are being rescued by helicopters, neighborhoods are being evacuated. entire cities are slowly but surely becoming submerged in water. 60 people missing and counting. 32 deaths and counting.
and this is not new. last november also had a flood like this one. 50 dead, many material losses. it happened again this january, with thousands being left without power or water for days.
three catastrophical disasters within less than a year. three disasters only a few months apart.
this is not natural.
unsustainable agricultural practices and politics led to this. a complete disregard for nature led to this. greed led to this. always greed.
when it comes to the climate crisis, i cannot stress this enough: we need to act now if we still want to live. disasters like this are going to happen more often and they're going to be much, much worse. this flood is being considered the worst climatic catastrophe in the history of my state. i don't know how long it will take for another bigger one to happen and take its place. i just know it will be sooner than it should.

please help if you can. this is my state, and so many cities were affected by the floods. the government isn't doing anything to help us at all, people had to get together to help those who lost everything. a lot of those people, my people, are rn living in shelters because they lost all their belongings, including their homes! so if you can and have some spare money please please please donate. you can also donate clothes (warm ones, it's very cold at this time of the year here), shoes, cat food, dog food, it's so appreciated. you can send it from other countries to some of these donation pages. thank u <3
Climate Emergency, Rio Grande do Sul, 2024, Brazil
okay. i know i say this a lot but i think this might actually be my favorite piece
it started with a robot sketch, then a two page poem, then I started getting the full vision for what the illustration would look like. As I did that and figured out how i'd add text, the full idea unraveled.
This takes place in a post-apocalyptic world where humanity is extinct and the natural world is finally starting to thrive, although there are issues and crises due to what humanity left behind. if this is well received I might turn it into a series, a way of approaching climate change in an imaginative and whimsical light, also i'm really excited I drew a fox for the first time.
it's a little different to what i usually draw but I'm on a higher dose of meds and a little happier, so while that lasts here's some illustrated whimsy :)
Hear me out, Climate Change (in my accords) is a hoax but, since last 100 years or so (mainly after industrialisation) the drastic change of temperature and environment around us have changed rapidly, causing an ecological crisis. The last time earth had such change was when it was just one billion year old. During the impact of an asteroid during the Cretaceous period led to the global temperature increase upto 250% which led to extinction of major flora and fauna.
The only difference is, climate changes gradually after a time due to the influence of nature, but according to the reports the heat waves we are facing right now, wasn’t supposed to be an issue for the next 150 years.
If earth is supposed to be habitable for 2 more billion years, just minus 150-200 years from it before it resents again or gets engulfed by our sun. It has always been a game of survival of the fittest and that’s the truth.
We humans have interfered with the natural balance of the earth. We are crying for the issues we have caused in the first place in the name of modernism. We intervened with the natural process, but we never created climate crisis. It always existed, we just added fuel to the fire for our own destruction and for the next generations.
In the end, yes we humans are the reason why earth is going to die sooner and making other species suffer due to our actions. But evidently earth will die out someday. It’s natural. That’s what universe has been telling us. But I’m against misuse of resources and deforestation. For our own benefit we have been making other flora and fauna suffer and making so many specimen go extinct. We need to make such resolutions to control certain issues but not blame everything to “climate change due to human actions.”

This kid in my class just suggested creating a predator for humans and to make them robots s on they wouldn’t make more of themselves because if they go out of control they will be smart. Most of the class agreed.

Day 5: Build. This took me a while, I was stuck until early on Monday morning, London in rush hour - not usually the most inspirating time and place - when, walking into Trafalgar Square with the beat of the Samba band drumming at my back, I suddenly felt that things were things were finally, actually, changing.
Rebels everywhere, thank you.

turn up, build a band:
from that, a movement rises.
We Are The Water.
