Weather forecasters predict this year’s monsoon will extend into December providing a respite for Cambodian farmers who are struggling to recover from the drought. However, rescue efforts were being complicated by the #floods. #Cambodia #drought #Asia

Yes first impressions don't do justice to the wonderful culture and people

[Samantha Diouf @SamanthaDiouf]

Kampot by night…such a shame about the plastic pollution. We need systemic change to overcome this issue. Where/how can we start to tackle this?! It’s everywhere in Cambodia & needs mass behaviour change, political will, incentives etc. I wish Cambodia would learn from Rwanda..

As we celebrate the 15 day Pchum Ben festival we would like to share this Phnom Penh Post article on the intricately decorated, tiered-containers that locals take into pagodas that are filled with food to offer monks. #chansrak #pchumben https://t.co/SYEyeaDzvX

🔥 Fumes frm burning synthetic clothes harm workers' health & the climate.

🔗 What's more, the workers are often in bonded labour.

Great in depth update, thanks

[Mekong Dam Monitor @MekongMonitor]

Tonle Sap River is flowing downstream into the Mekong mainstream at Phnom Penh. The usual reversal was only a few weeks, not enough to cause significant expansion of the lake upstream, not enough to bring a huge amount of fish larvae & eggs to the lake. vid: @geraldrflynn 1/

[Mekong Dam Monitor @MekongMonitor]

Weekly Update 7/25-31:

No good news for the Mekong wet season. The flood pulse didn't expand thru July. Seasonal inundation is now below normal. Drought is forming in the upstream. River levels are down when they should be up. Dam operators must restrict less flow to help. 1/

For thousands of years the great lake TONIE SAP has provided food for millions of people who call it "the beating heart " of #Cambodia #ClimateCrisis #drought
