10 knots wind (no 'carnerinhos' in view) = how many knots progress?

The Aldebaran or the Kiri?

Climate change is affecting far away places like the Arctic and tropical islands. But what is happening in coastal Mexico? And how are people responding? The Voyage of Kiri is traveling the Pacific coast from April to August exploring issues of climate adaptation and the solutions of sustainable design. From September to March, we will be visiting a few other places, and writing a book about the voyage.
