GLOBALink | A shutterbug's passion for the #finless #porpoise.

The #Yangtze finless porpoise, the namesake of #China's longest river, is so connected to the Yangtze River that any change in the health of its environment can support -- or threaten -- the species' survival. Photographer Yang He understands this and has made it his life's mission to document the recovery of this precious creature.

The number of #Yangtze #finless porpoises spotted in the #Nanjing section of the Yangtze River in 2022 was estimated to be about 62, approximately 10.4% of the total population of this endangered species in the main channel of the great river.#NatureBeauty #biodiversity #wildlife

How #climatechange is altering large #rivers
In 2022 water in some of world’s largest rivers, including #Rhine in #Europe and #Yangtze in #China, fell to historical lows. #MississippiRiver fell so low in Memphis,TN, in Oct that barges were unable to float

Under #XiJinPing #China has turned into a "communist" #dictatorship.The climate chaos has also led to social unrest. Workers fleeing #FoxComm the main producer of #Apple #iPhones who have no food or very little, and get payd slave wages of 13.7 $ per day. Soon China will have famine thanks to the droughts for instance the #Yangtze river. https://youtu.be/3hKBAeie5wY Across the street from Foxconn employees, you can see a human wall of special police in white hazmat suits is standing by. On some sections of the road, there are large trucks blocking the road, trying to intercept the workers who want to go home. The plans of #Xi are worse than the plans from #Stalin and will lead to millions of deaths. We live in the Age of Psychopaths like him.

China lost its Yangtze River dolphin. Climate change is coming for other species next

Experts have expressed grave concern that other rare native Yangtze animal and plant species are likely to suffer a similar fate to the #BaijiRiverDolphin as worsening #ClimateChange and #ExtremeWeather conditions take their toll on Asia's longest river.
China has been grappling with its worst #HeatWave on record and the #Yangtze, the third longest river in the world, is drying up.

China Turns To Cloud-Seeding Weather Modification To Remedy Drought

Facing their most significant #drought in living memory, #China is turning to cloud-seeding to bring rain to the parched reservoirs along the #Yangtze River – the longest river in #Asia that provides water for hundreds of millions of people.

"Regions that rely on the Yangtze, China’s longest river, are having to deploy pumps and cloud-seeding rockets as a long drought depletes water levels and threatens crops, and a heatwave is set to last another two weeks."

"The Yangtze’s middle and lower reaches have faced temperatures in excess of 40 Celsius (104 Fahrenheit) over the past month, with experts blaming climate change-induced variations in the western Pacific subtropical high, a major determinant of summer weather throughout east Asia."
