El Calafate, Argentina: Glaciers are disappearing
Perito Moreno Glacier is located in Los Glaciares National Park near El Calafate in Argentina and has been at high risk for years due to climate change. World leaders gathered in Scotland for a United Nations climate summit, known as COP26, to push states to step up their efforts to contain the crisis. Experts say the amount of energy released by global warming could melt much of the planet's ice, raise global sea levels and increase extreme weather conditions.
La Palma, Spain: Lava from Cumbre Viejo stops nowhere
The onslaught of the hot lava river that erupts from the volcano Kubre Viejo on the island of La Palma in Spain continues its destructive work unhindered.

St. Louis, Senegal: A city of climate migrants
Typical is the drone image which shows a camp for internally displaced persons who lost their coastal homes due to erosion from the Atlantic Ocean in St. Louis, Senegal. Experts say the amount of energy released by global warming would raise global sea levels as a result of melting ice, leading millions to flee. While the terrestrial landscape of the planet will change.

Campaigns are being carried out by the environmental group Ocean Rebellion on the sidelines of the UN COP26 Climate Summit. Protesters wearing fish head masks are taking part in a protest against the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC).

Put Forge, Pennsylvania: A photo within a photo

Frankfurt, Germany: End deforestation
Colorful trees stand near a road through the Towns area near Frankfurt. More than 100 countries are committed to ending deforestation, which scientists say is a major driver of climate change. Britain hailed the commitment as the first major achievement of the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Glasgow.
