#PhotoEssay on the Iraqi wetlands decimated by the #ClimateCrisis :
"The people of the Hawizeh marshes of southern Iraq have an ancient history living in the world’s most unique and biodiverse #wetlands. The region has been reduced to near-desert as a result of the climate crisis, devastated by #drought and man-made dams. Thousands of families are having to leave."
