My heart goes out to my hometown, submerged under water, and my home state grappling with the worst flood ever recorded. My thoughts are with all Gaúchos during this challenging time❤️ 🇧🇷 #ClimateCrisis

The floods in Brazil persist, revealing critical shortcomings in disaster management. Here is my take: 📣Communication failures exacerbated the crisis. While Metsul and CEMADEN issued alerts, many districts did not react. They lack Civil Defense coordination & contingency plans

Heartbroken to witness the devastation caused by the worst natural disaster in Brazil's history. My state has been ravaged, with over half of my 200K home town displaced from their homes and over 100 lives lost. 💔 #ClimateAction #BrazilFloods bbc.com/news/world-lat…
