Water and Climate in Brazzaville
Water, the source of life, and the climate, the great organizer of natural balances, have always shaped the contours of our existence. But in the era of climate upheaval, these two forces, once allies, become silent witnesses to our contradictions, our choices and our negligence. In Brazzaville, a pearl nestled on the banks of the majestic Congo River, these challenges take on a poignant dimension, where urgency rubs shoulders with hope, and where the daily lives of residents combine with the inevitable march of change. In this context, Water and Climate in Brazzaville is not just a book: it is a cry, an invitation, a call to look closely at what often escapes us. It is not simply a matter of collecting climate data or mapping the meanders of the Congo River. This book aspires to reveal the subtle and yet fragile links that unite man, his environment and the choices he makes or refuses to make.
