This is a map combining rivers and topography in the South America. Hopefully it shows the cool link between mountain ranges and waterways.
This map was made with #Python using #geopandas and #matplotlib.

Of the countless images I have captured in my life, none is more iconic than this one. I can't believe it has been 30 years since Hurricane Andrew devastated South Florida. I'll never forget capturing this image of the zoos flamingos huddled in the ladies restroom for protection.

#QueCalor More record-breaking temperatures in Miami! This kind of heat is deadly for the thousands of farmworkers and construction workers who work outdoors without any enforceable heat standard at work: water, shade, and rest breaks. @WeCount_Fl

It appears that #Miami just set its third record high heat index in four days (Aug 17, 19, 20). We reached 107° so far today. Prior to this stretch, the previous record high heat index was set back on May 20, so it's been a while.

❗️NOTICE❗️ Earlier today, a Water & Sewer Dept. employee observed a manhole overflowing, leading to 1000 gallons of raw sewage spilling into the Miami River. Latest update: leak had not been stopped and the street had not yet been sanitized. Exercise caution in this area.

(1/5) Did you know that more than half of Amazonian #deforestation in #Brazil is directly tied to beef production? 🐄 Estimates indicate that beef production accounts for nearly 70% of deforestation in the Brazilian Amazon. (references below)
