A Mongabay video series follows communities in Bangladesh, Mexico and Thailand adapting to environmental strain with local, low-tech fixes rather than waiting on institutions.

In Bangladesh, families are building flood-resistant tiny homes for monsoon season. In Mexico City, Xochimilco farmers are restoring floating gardens to clean waterways and support the endangered axolotl, while in Thailand fishers and researchers map a lake and build fish shelters to protect a lift-net tradition threatened by pollution.

The full dispatch is available from the source below.
