- Authorities in Brazil's south say they are planning to build tent cities to house some of the people displaced by historic flooding. The state of Rio Grande de Sul has been devastated by heavy rains since April forcing half a million people to flee their homes. Scientists are warning that it may take a month for the floods to subside. DW's Gustavo Basso has this report from the flooded region.

It is terrible I hard to watch... Very sympathize with people who are faced with this grief
There was also a man who rescued three little girls and these three girls who were inside the boat asked him to pick up a doll that was floating for them and when he went to pull it out of the water this doll was a dead baby. 😢

The possibility of something like this happening was predicted 3 years ago by local specialists, the thing they got wrong was the timing. They had no idea it would be so soon.
Exactly. And really nothing was made . Unfortunately.😢
"They had no idea" you mean they deliberately ignored the climatologists warnings in the name of the dismantle of the public services and 'make the state smaller'. When you have neoliberal governors and presidents you should not wait preventive measures to catastrophes never. This is 'spend too much' for them. They like to spend with police only, to put the population in their place while destroy the healthcare the civilian defense, the public infrastructure, education to sell everything to the private sector..
Anyway our government should have been more prepared for this event and should have alert the population.
Brasil criou uma política liberal, assim nada sai do papel mesmo
Flood risk in a warmer atmosphere is very different than before. “100” year floods have become 35 year floods and for some areas, 8 year floods. And that risk has become more fine grained. In the US it’s now on a county level, but this shift is true globally. Everywhere, intensified risk is more localized. Historical methods of risk assessment that rely on the past are no good anymore.
While here in the Philippines we experience heat wave that we never had before, it reach 41 degrees, its more than 2 months now 🥵🥵🥵🥵😢😢😢
In this region of Brazil, before the rains temperatures reached 30°, but now they have plummeted to between 5° and 15°
No sudeste e Cento-oeste do Brasil também estamos experimentando ondas de calor, são essas ondas que impediram as chuvas de avançarem pelo país e causaram todas essas inundações no Estado do Rio Grande do Sul.
after all this rain some places here hit -2º C
That's heat index and not air temperature! Those two are not the same, lol! You need to be more specific so your statement won't be misleading!
Hit waves and droughts are about to happen in other parts of Brazil later this year, in part as a consequence of what just happened. All this humidity that got trapped there in the south by some area of atmospheric pressure and caused those rains, would normally keep traveling northwards and turn into rain in other places. Now this rain isn't coming to those areas, water levels are already low in some critical areas.... This is not the end of the climate event in Brazil, but hopefully the worse has already passed.

São quase 10 milhões de pessoas direta ou indiretamente atingidas. É muito maior que falam
Essa matéria não mostrou nem 10% do que aconteceu aqui no Sul do Brasil. Cidades inteiras ficaram debaixo d'água, outras foram totalmente variadas do mapa. Foi uma coisa assustadora que nunca se viu por aqui nessas proporções. Sabe o que é ver uma cidade com mais de 40 mil habitantes debaixo d'água? Teve lugares que o nível da água passou de 15 metros. É simplesmente assustador

God bless Brazil
There’s massive flooding everywhere.
Initial estimates from FIERGS (Federation of Industries of the State of Rio Grande do Sul-RS): 3 years to restructure RS; cost: R$320 billion (US$63 billion); 447 municipalities affected, with 95.6% of industrial establishments compromised; 96.1% of industrial jobs compromised; 97.1% of exports from the manufacturing industry compromised; 96.9% of ICMS (tax on circulation of goods) collection from industrial activities compromised. Severe losses in agribusiness (more than R$600 million - US$118 million). Important road networks compromised/completely destroyed - resulting in impediment to the flow of production still in operation, receipt of inputs, displacement of workers. An estimated 550,000 people are homeless (houses destroyed or temporarily flooded). Compromised health care systems - beginning of waves of infectious diseases resulting from floods and landslides: typhus, tetanus, leptospirosis, hepatitis, gastroenteritis. A GREAT CHALLENGE.
As a brazilian, I think it's important to say that this region is the fourth most economically rich in the country. Yet, even with the acess to a big amount of resources and protection againts floods, it has proven inneficient.
This shows the great risk we face as humankind, as there will be no safe place from climate changes.
I truly hope those sad events happening worldwide, make people see and act against this threat.

It's strange, there's no single broadcasting news showing any camps, or places where these hang million people are located and sheltered......... Where are the people?
In shelters, schools, churches and sports grounds.
Search in Portuguese right here on UA-cam if you want to see something. Idt 🥴
"Abrigos no Rio Grande do Sul"
"Abrigos RS"
👍
And there are many shelters, so don't expect to find a video with 30,000 people crammed into just one. The shelters are well distributed, so there is no "overcrowding".
Many have also gone to the homes of relatives or friends in cities in Rio Grande do Sul that were not affected or even in other states
Das ist jetzt zwei Wochen her, wie sieht es dort inzwischen aus?
Pray to God,they recover,stay strong 💪 and move on.
Devastador! Muito muito triste por tudo isso que aconteceu com o Estado do Rio Grande do Sul 😢😢😢
The rich civilians, the famous people, the influencers, and we poor civilians are also helping, in all parts of the country there are collection points for Rio Grande do Sul
How very sad. Are maps available of the damage? Everything I’ve seen video of so far has shown damage limited to floodplains immediately adjacent to rivers.
I haven't seen a detailed map yet, just a projection of the area that the water flooded. There are also satellite images comparing before and after that you can probably find easily.
RIo grande do Sul has 3 main river basins, west (to the uruguai river), southern, to the patos lagoon southern part and the northern basin below the mountain regions, which flow to the Guaiba river (and then to the lagoon, and finally to the ocean). It's like a funnel basically. The valleys of those rivers in the center-north were flooded to historic heights, affecting all the smaller towns in their paths. Most catastrophic cases were indeed in towns on the river margins, because the water flooded way more than normal. It all coalesced in the Capital which borders the short Guaíba, receiving its strongest flood in history. The city itself was badly damaged in areas while other towns in the metro area were hit even harder, one of them had all its western neighborhoods covered in water to the roof of houses. The flood in general affected plentiful of roadways and bridges in the state, rice and wheat fields were damaged, cattle and factories as well. People were left without water service for days in the capital. The airport is out of order for until 30th may the earliest and possibly until september (it's the largest airport in the southern region of Brazil).
Southern partt of the state was hit as well especially as the waters flow down the lagoon, since its only ocean connection is a very small twisting point, the wind affects a lot how much the flood will last there, but some areas there were badly hit as well
floodplains immediately adjacent to rivers. You've just decribed the State of Rio Grande do Sul
It literally translates to "Big River of the South". So, yes, everywhere is surrounded by rivers.
Actually is more then a million but they hide figures
Why not tiny homes it would be a improvement over tents
Hopefully the people of brazil recovers and the government reviews the flood control and check the deforestation as well to help stop flooding
There is nothing to do with deforestation, in fact the mass that came from the trees in the Amazon contributed to the amount of rain. The problems was that there is pressure from north blocking the rain clouds to move and in an area built around rivers.
hopefully you study more about Brazilian geography before commenting
@@laraleon There is actually a lot to do with deforestation, greenhouse gas emissions and a number of other factors that contribute to climate change. Sure, a lot of the humidity that turned into rain there comes from the forest... and that's a good thing. We need that humidity to have the necessary rain around the continent. What you seem to be ignoring here is that the atmospheric pressure that blocked said humidity from continuing northwards has its causes too, and those causes are kinked to factors that are either caused or affected by climate change, such as the warming of the ocean which contributed to a stronger "El Nino" event.
We need help!

Our sympathy will not convince us to reduce our consumption to stop the climate disaster. We will still buy unnecessary plastic junk, drive around when we can walk or bike, eat too much meat and fast food, and take airplane flights to far away vacation spots.

It's a flood there is nothing what can stop it and man made climate change is going to be worse
Please guys, of course, Amazon deforestation is a huge problem, and has a, enormous impact on the earth's climate, but what's happening in Rio Grande do Sul is not Brazil's only fault. Nobody can guilt Brazil about this tragedy while US, China, India and many other world's big economies emit billion tons of CO2 in the atmosphere per year. I'm not minimizing Brazil's impact on global climate, we are within the ten biggest emissions of CO2 on Earth per year, but of course this is not Brazil's only fault, a lot of countries emit much more CO2 in the atmosphere than Brazil, mainly US and China, that lead the table for a huge margin.
Humanity consumerism that's causing this, today Brazil is suffering climate problems, but tomorrow can be from any other country in the world, climate change do not chose who's it gonna impact.

The south of Brazil is historically far right politically speaking, Rio Grande Do Sul's governor and most of its mayors in the region are all backed up financially by agro business. They were elected to change environmental laws and have been doing so for the past years. The current governor alone has facilitated the alteration of some 500 articles on the local environmental policies and regulations, allowing the big farmers to deforest large areas, use forbidden pesticides and temper with the course of creeks and streams. That alone probably could not cause such big flood, but it sure didn't help stop it.
quanta mentira, Lula venceu por duas vezes nos anos 90 enquanto o resto do país votou contra ele, o estado é bastante dividido, o PT venceu em todo a metade sul e na grande Porto Alegre, o norte do estado de fato é uma continuação de Santa Catarina. Não sei o que você ganha mentindo pra estrangeiros.
All world is suffering with climate changes. Obvioulsly we could be more sustainable, but there are countries worst than Brazil that pollute more. Always rain a lot in some areas in Brazil, mainly in Rio de Janeiro. We don't have structure or a good plan to face this amount of water since years ago.
It sure wouldn´t make a change regarding this flood.
4/5 of Rio Grande do Sul state are grasslands... the pampas and the Campos de Cima da Serra.
Removing bureaucracy in environmental laws cuts both edges btw.
Everyone is talking about the Chinese "City Sponges". (which btw would not help at all to this type and size of flood).
The environmental laws, as they were, would simply make impossible to create such city sponges, because of the bureaucracy.
Stop saying nonsense. As if a left government would make any difference in *global* warming.
It made the waters faster, to say the least, with riparian forest being swept away...

Amazon rainforest can store the most CO2 per area of all of Earth's biomes! If Brazil wants to do something about it, then they have it in their own hands and stop deforesting. It's Brazil's choice for the rest of the Earth, too. You reap what you sow. Galatians 6:7
You reap what you sow/ Interesting. where do you live? 80% of Amazon rainforest is preserved. I'm pretty sure your country does much more damage to the environment than Brazil. Do you think this type of thing won't happen where you live? Think again. You reap what you sow...
The Amazon rain forest is 3 thousand miles away from the region that is flooded. I didn't see any specialist saying the floods were caused by trees being cut in the amazon. but you had to come here and write this comment to say "you reap what you sow", right?

Bad Karma for Brazil.
Yes, everyone says it's karma. The left says it's "karma" for our "racism". They don't even consider us brazilians. But maybe you're right... you're so smart, after all.
Brazil's problem is the fascist extreme right that creates laws to make environmental preservation more flexible and to destroy forests. Unfortunately, Brazil's far-right politicians, along with far-right politicians from the USA and other countries and businesspeople like Ellon Musk, are the biggest supporters of the destruction of forests and the environment. Brazil will overcome this, President Lula has already adopted measures to rebuild each house that was destroyed and rebuild the State, the BRICS bank alone has already released one billion dollars for the State.
You are forgetting that Jesus Elon Musk and his PayPal mafia are making end runs around Latin America central governments and going straight to local municipalities to promote “Carbon Credits” for cash.
They owning such purchased carbon credits , a pitiance , enables them to control entire regions , and position themselves towards unhinged land grab for forests , water systems , underground riches. Part of the deal is they will monitor by satelite all regions under agreement.
All his posturing to be the earth’s savior is smoke screens. He was certainly promised the earth by the previous administration and later denied by the new admistration and has been running his mouth afoul against the current administration. Just because he did not get what he wanted.

There is nothing to do with deforestation, in fact the air mass that came from the trees in the Amazon contributed to the amount of rain. The problems was that there is pressure from north blocking the rain clouds to move and in an area built around rivers.
The air mass originating from the Amazon Rainforest significantly contributes to rainfall in the south of Brazil. This phenomenon is primarily driven by the atmospheric circulation patterns and the unique geographic and climatic features of Brazil. Here’s a closer look at how this happens:
### 1. **Evapotranspiration in the Amazon**
The Amazon Rainforest, being one of the largest and most dense rainforests in the world, has a high rate of evapotranspiration. This is the process by which water is transferred from the land to the atmosphere by evaporation from soil and other surfaces and by transpiration from plants. The vast amount of moisture released into the atmosphere by the Amazon plays a crucial role in the regional climate dynamics.
### 2. **Formation of Air Masses**
The warm, moist air over the Amazon forms a significant air mass known as the Amazonian Air Mass. This air mass is characterized by its humidity and warmth. As it travels, it can influence weather patterns significantly, depending on prevailing wind patterns and other atmospheric conditions.
### 3. **Movement of the Air Mass**
The movement of air masses is influenced by the general circulation of the atmosphere. In the case of Brazil, the Amazonian Air Mass can move southward depending on the seasonal patterns and atmospheric circulation. This southward movement is often influenced by the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) and frontal systems coming from the south.
### 4. **Contribution to Rainfall**
As the moist and warm Amazonian Air Mass moves southward, it encounters cooler air masses from higher latitudes and the Southern Atlantic. The interaction between these air masses can lead to condensation and precipitation. The lifting of warm, moist air over cooler air (a process known as orographic lift) often results in rainfall. This is particularly significant during the transition from winter to spring and during the summer months.
### 5. **Impact on Southern Brazil**
Southern Brazil, including states like Paraná, Santa Catarina, and Rio Grande do Sul, benefits from these rainfalls, especially during periods when other climatic influences, such as El Niño or La Niña, affect regional weather patterns. The moisture contributed by the Amazon is crucial for agriculture, hydroelectric power generation, and the overall ecology of these regions.
In summary, the air mass from the Amazon, laden with moisture, plays a vital role in contributing to the rainfall patterns in southern Brazil, showcasing the interconnected nature of regional climates and the significant influence of large forested areas on global weather patterns.

We need international solidarity in the fight against climate change, not punching down with comments like "their own fault".
The Brazilian people are no monolith, just because their forests are being cut, it doesn't mean 'they' somehow deserved the consequences. Plenty of Brazilians disapprove of these practices, but they are up against people and corporations that just want to plunder the earth and don't care about the next generation. And these plunderers very much include western companies, politicians and citizens, I know. But the same thing goes for us Europeans or Americans: we too are not a monolith, we don't all want to plunder the global south, even though we did just that for a few centuries.
There is an unfolding climate and ecological disaster in every country, we need solidarity, if we fall into the trap of blaming other victims, we are only playing into the hands of oligarchs, plutocrats, authoritarians, billionaires and megacorporations.

That's sounding more and more like a religion. Just believe, be weak and be a hypocrite. It even has original sin.

It's not only the logging.

Does your country use 100% clean energy? Brazil yes, does your country have more forests than Brazil? There isn't, because they've already cut them all.
@@maiconc.b9453what you're spreading in your comments simply isn't true. Brazil is using biomass from all that deforestation which sums up to about 50% of energy production.
Brazil is one of the countries to deforest their lands the fastest.
Deforestation in the USA much worst but people only talk about Brazil because it’s the Amazon
That's what they get for commenting "come to brazil!!!!" under every video.
come to Brazil
come to brazil
Come to Brazil.
