Chiara wäre eine ganz normale Katze. Wenn nicht ihr Kopf zu rund, die Beine zu kurz, sie insgesamt zu klein und mit einem Silberblick ausgestattet wäre, der seinesgleichen sucht. Gemobbt und eingeschüchtert von ihren beiden vierbeinigen Mitbewohnerinnen lebt sie ein einsames und zurückgezogenes Leben bei ihrem menschlichen Dosenöffner. Als sich die neue Freundin ihres Herrchens unsterblich in Chiara verliebt und sie in ihr Zuhause holt, beginnt eine erstaunliche Verwandlung.

British photographer Tariq Zaidi presents a fashion subculture of Kinshasa & Brazzaville: La Sape, Societe des Ambianceurs et des Personnes Elegantes.

Sashaying through the streets they are treated like rock stars - turning heads, bringing 'joie de vivre' to their communities and defying their circumstances.
Adaptation is the poor cousin of the climate change challenge - the glamour of international debate is around global mitigation agreements, while the bottom-up activities of adaptation, carried out in community halls and local government offices, are often overlooked. Yet, as international forums fail to deliver reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, the world is realising that effective adaptation will be essential across all sectors to deal with the unavoidable impacts of climate change. The need to understand how to adapt effectively, and to develop appropriate adaptation options and actions, is becoming increasingly urgent. This book reports the current state of knowledge on climate cha...
