Communities in the Amazon struggle amid the second year of a devastating drought A prolonged drought, now in its second year, is devastating large swaths of Brazil's Amazon rainforest.

KAHN: "It's so difficult here in Amazonas, Brazil's largest state by area in the rainforest," he says, just as a customer starts haggling over the cost of a kilo of his piracuru filets. KAHN: "It's sad to see the river like this," he says.
