Climate Change is affecting the developing countries at first and the hardest. Weak social infrastructure, population growth, weak possibilities to adapt - there are many reasons behind it. In Kenya there are three main areas that are hit the hardest by the effects of Climate Change. For many the changing living conditions lead into a migration into the big cities. Climate Change is not only a enviromental problem, it is not least a social problem that is the tipping point for the loss of the livelihood for many.

In the far north of Laos, close to the border to China is Nam Ha, a national park, home of the last hilltribes in the region.
Far away from the outside world they are still living as they lived for hundreds of years with their own language and rituals.

Ladakh, the forgotten kingdom high up in the Himalaya is one of the most stunning and untouched regions on the planet, only reachable for a long time by bus, hauling for two days over some of the highest passes you could drive through. Feel the wide open space.
