4. Indonesia (coming soon):

Continued climate change to 'cut Indonesia's rice production by millions of tons a year, cutting exports by a third and leading to price increases of more than 50%'

Indonesia is the world's fourth-largest rice producer.

An article on this taxidermist in Singapore.

"Ms Vivian Tham’s early fascination with insects turned into a passion for preserving dead wildlife - from fruit flies to civet cats. The Straits Times finds out more about her full-time taxidermy practice."

@drownee Amen. The quake was on the other side of the mountain that's outside my house, but the outcomes couldn't be more different. The images are saddening.

The temblor that struck Cianjur was scary enough in Bogor, where I am. My bookcase was swinging and there was an ungodly rumble in the house. I've been through larger magnitude quakes, but none felt like this. We're safe, no worries, but reports are coming in that several dozen have died.
