The Apolima-Arara, who participated in the Ashaninka’s festivities along with Yawanawa, Huni Kuin, and other tribes, are dealing with some of the same problems faced by their neighbors decades ago. Part of their territory has been deforested by non-Indigenous people, and they are working to improve their agricultural production. The main village, Nordestino, has largely eliminated surrounding pasture by planting trees.So far, the OPIRJ project has provided agricultural equipment and a boat for territorial surveillance.

“Apiwtxa is an example to us. No Indigenous people retook their territory easily,” Apolima-Arara leader José Angelo Macedo Avelino said from inside the village’s collective hut, accompanied by other tribe members. “Apiwtxa suffered just like us, and now their territory is recovered. We plan to do the same.”The Associated Press’ climate and environmental coverage receives financial support from multiple private foundations. AP is solely responsible for all content.

SAVE VALLEY CONSERVANCY, Zimbabwe (AP) — On the impoverished edges of a conservancy that protects wildlife in southeastern Zimbabwe, 14-year-old Esther Bote wakes up at dawn to a practiced daily routine.She cleans the house, lights the fire, cooks, bathes and gets into her neat grey and white school uniform.

The teenager has been living with such threats for some time now but there is no getting used to it. Children as young as 5, some held by the hand by slightly older peers or siblings, briskly walk in thick forests to school and then back home.

“Sometimes we see animal footprints. We see their footprints and can tell that the elephants are still around,” she told The Associated Press from her home, where she stays with her elderly grandparents.Carolyn Baker, a runner who suffered from heatstroke last year, prepares for the Falmouth Walk, Saturday, Aug. 17, 2024, in Falmouth, Mass.

The heatstroke that felled Baker last year is a deadly, and climate change is worsening the risk. In the continental U.S., the frequency of dangerously hot days
