CNN —A floating village now lies stranded on a lakebed in Brazil’s Amazon as severe drought leaves communities struggling to access food, fresh water and fuel. Lake Puraquequara is part of the Rio Negro river system, which has been near record-low since the end of September, according to the state’s civil defense authority. “There are many people already having difficulty accessing food, food security, drinking water and other important inputs,” he said in a statement at the time.

REUTERS/Bruno Kelly Acquire Licensing RightsMANAUS, Oct 6 (Reuters) - Life has come to a standstill for a floating village now stranded on mud flats left by severe drought in Brazil's Amazon rainforest. As Lake Puraquequara dried up, so too has business evaporated for the owners of boats and floating shops that are also stuck in the mud. The Amazon drought, like flooding in the south of Brazil, is a result of the El Niño phenomenon, which warms the Pacific Ocean's surface water, experts say. Things have gotten so bad at Lake Puraquequara that there is little water to drink or cook with.
