"This morning an article in
Rolling Stone Magazine, Will an Oil Racket
Destroy One of Africa’s Most Sacred Places?, crossed my feed. It immediately
caught my eye because it was written about an issue that has caused me great
sorrow.
In 2021 my partner and I housesat in Maun, Botswana, a city located just
outside the southern end of the Okavango Delta, for six weeks.
Known as the largest inland river delta in the world, the Okavango Delta is one
of our planet's most biologically rich areas. Each year the rains from Angola
tumble down the mountains and fill in an inland area of approximately 15 000
sq. km (5791 sq. miles).
This water feeds millions of creatures and habitats whose lives depend on this
yearly cycle."
