angels dry

what you see before you is the tallest waterfall in the world, running bone dry. these are before and after pictures, the most recent ones of this year but the others are not older than ten, this is the tallest waterfall on the planet, and the drought that is now ravaging Venezuela causing widespread rationing has also taken its toll on one of the countries most awe inspiring natural views. this is due to a drought, the severity of which is blamed on the gradual warming and drying occurring in Venezuela due to climate change, again the temperature is due to increase 3 degrees Celsius before the end of the century, possibly as early as 2050. this is in the most remote region of my country, on the edge of the great plateau and the amazon, beyond the reach of man, but not beyond the consequences of his actions.
