This is the eighth edition of the People & Planet

Diary, and once again Im proud to bring youa selection of extraordinary images generously

donated by photographers around the world, insupport of the 41 organisations that are partners inthis project.

Each year we try to select the most striking and

most interesting images from around the world, andoften once they are chosen, a theme emerges.This year a common theme in many of the images

is work.

Work is essential for almost all of us, and for manypeople it denes who we are. Our jobs are asindividual as we are, and while work can be dirty,

hard, tenuous or dangerous, it can also be exciting,inspiring and change-making.

While in Australia were lucky enough to haveone of the lowest unemployment rates in the

world, more than 200 million people worldwideare currently unemployed, and countless millionsof others struggle to nd enough work to support

themselves.

At the same time, there are many fantasticorganisations - including many of our not-for-prot

parters - working to ght the causes

Rice Harvest Indonesia

Alamsyah Rauf (Indonesia)

The dry season means harvest time for rice farmers in Indonesia. As the worlds third-largest

producer of rice (behind China and India), Indonesia mostly manages to feed its 240 million people

using domestically-grown rice. From the 1970s, former president Su harto promoted rice as a symbolof prosperity, subsidising rice and distributing it free to the poor. As a result, rice displaced other

staples like corn, yams and sago which gained a reputation as food only t for poor people. But

rising food prices and concern about food security have seen the government again encourage

production and consumption of more diverse foods, with campaigns for one day a week without

rice and one meal a day without rice.

The Sky is My Playground Kattoli Beach, Bangladesh

Mohammad Anamul Haque (Bangladesh)

Silhouetted against a spectacular sunset, these young boys play football on Kattoli Beach near

Chittagong, Bangladesh. This beach was hit by a tropical storm in May 2013, killing 17 people

and forcing the evacuation of more than a million coastal residents. Coastal communities in

Bangladesh are particularly vulnerable to destruction from cyclones and storm surges due to a

lack of protective vegetation, heightened by an increase in the intensity and frequency of tropical

cyclones due to climate change. To minimise destruction from future storms and cyclones, the

Bangladesh government has signed up for a US$33.8 million grant from the World Bank to increase

forest cover in parts of the country most at risk from climate change.

The End of the World Yamal Peninsula, Russia

Andrey Shapran (Latvia)

Traditional dwellings provide shelter from the Arctic night in Yamal, Russia literally the end of the

world in the indigenous Nenets language. The region is under considerable pressure from oil and

gas companies seeking to further develop the resource-rich peninsula, which already produces 90

per cent of Russias gas supplies. While the mining boom has raised living standards and wages on

average across the peninsula, few of the benets have owed to the Nenets. Traditional reindeer-

herding routes are now criss-crossed by gas pipelines and some Nenets claim that sh stocks have

declined since the pipelines were installed. In response, a new project supported by the Russian,

Swedish and Norwegian governments is helping the next generation of reindeer herders preserve

their traditional livelihoods while adapting to life alongside the gas and oil companies.

Sadhu and Monkey Varanasi, India

Anton Jankovoy (Ukraine)

This sadhu (holy man or good man in Sanskrit) and his monkey companion live in Varanasi, one

of the oldest continuously-inhabited cities on the planet. Indias sadhus live an ascetic existence,

renouncing all material possessions in order to focus on their own spiritual practices, and they rely

on alms or donations from the community to survive. In some urban areas, particularly popular

pilgrimage cities, they are treated with suspicion as some non-devout beggars pose as sadhus in

order to earn a living. For the most part however, they are widely respected for their holiness and

their austere spiritual practices are thought to benet society.

Beautiful Forest Dublar Char, Sundarbans

Yousuf Tushar (Bangladesh)

Silhouetted against a spectacular sunset, these shermen cast their nets off the island of Dublar

Char in the Sundarbans literally the beautiful forest. Here salt and fresh water meet in a vast

Delta as three of Asias largest rivers the Ganges, Brahmaputra and Meghna rivers join the Bay

of Bengal. The largest remaining mangrove forest in the world, about one third of the Sundarbans is

water and the rest is a tapestry of waterways, mudats, and forested, silt islands or chars. Remote

Dublar Char is one of the last islands before the sea and is known for its sh and shermen. In

addition to the sh, over 250 species of birds thrive here along with threatened species such as

the estuarine crocodile, the Indian python and the rare Bengal tiger. According to NASAs Earth

Observatory, to date, the Sundarbans has been a good example of how ecosystems can be

protected and sustainably used by the people who live there.
