Indigenous people in the Amazon are urging Brazil to declare a climate emergency as rivers in the region dry up. Massive wildfires are also spreading rapidly on the outskirts of Villa Carlos Paz in Argentina, approaching the city with billowing smoke. The poor management of rivers in London has led to warnings that the city is at risk of running out of drinking water. In Cordoba, Argentina, wildfires have caused evacuations amid a heatwave, and a man has been detained for allegedly starting a fire to make coffee. The Amazon is experiencing a severe drought, causing shipping to stall as boats run aground in low rivers. Additionally, pollution fears have arisen for the River Glaven in the UK after torrential rain. The dry Amazon rainforest is also facing wildfires that are choking the city of Manaus.
