  • Photo by Stephanie Sinclair @stephsinclairpix @tooyoungtowed // A young wife with her husband and four children in Yemen. The World Health Organization reports an estimated 16 million adolescents between 15 and 19 – and another 1 million under the age of 15 – give birth each year. The younger the bride is when married, the less say she will have in family planning and the more likely it is that she will have complications during delivery. This image is part of a 175-image exhibition titled “Too Young to Wed,” which is the inaugural exhibition at the new L’Arche du Photojournalisme, atop at the prestigious Grand Arche de la Défense in Puteaux, Paris. Many of the images were made #onassignment for @natgeo, including this one. The show, which opened June 1 and runs through this Sunday, Sept. 24, is complete with educational information about the dangers of #childmarriage and the efforts underway around the world to end the global practice – including our work at our nonprofit organization of the same name, @TooYoungToWed.

  • Photo @lucalocatelliphoto for @natgeo Growing locally inside a city is a trend everywhere and the Dutch have their own way. the Netherlands has become an agricultural giant and it propose the most advanced high tech agro farming solutions to grow more with less. This futuristic project is the Urban Farmer greenhouse, a glimpse of how modern farming could be done inside cities. It was built on the rooftop of a former Philips building and they can harvest fresh vegetables for approximately 300kg per week, without using pesticides. The Urban Farmer is working as an hub for modern farming thinkers with educational program about the future of cities sustainability. How the future of sustainable farming could look like ? How the world is going to front the hunger crisis in the next decades ? Those questions brought me for @natgeo to cover this story which is featured on the National Geographic Magazine, September issue. Follow me @lucalocatelliphoto to see more about their way to grow more with less. / #hunger #food #foodcrisis #agriculture #greenhouse #sustainable #organic #solution #green #modern #modernfarmer #future #futuristic #netherlands #drone #dronephotography transition #drone #dronefly #dronevideos #dronephotography #urbanfarmers #rooftop #roofopfarmer Sent from my iPhone

  • Video by @joelsartore | This insect may look like forest debris from afar, but this Malaysian dead leaf mantis is very much alive. Photographed at @theomahazoo, this species is specialized to resemble a dried leaf so that hungry predators will ignore it as they search for a meal. When threatened, nymphs of this species will freeze and curl their legs in under their leaf-like backs in order to play dead. Adults, however, will raise their their wings and display the bright orange pattern underneath to fend off a predator. Check out @joelsartore for a portrait of this mantis. . . #insects #bugs #mantis #deadleafmantis #mantid #biodiversity #animalfacts #wildlife #nature #wildlifephotography #natgeo #savetogether #photoark
  • Photo by @ladzinski | Elite athletes from across the globe recently attempted to break the two-hour marathon. Like climbing Everest or exploring space, @Nike’s #Breaking2 project is all about pushing the boundaries of the human body. While some believe the two-hour mark will forever be out of reach, others believe science can help these runners achieve the seemingly impossible goal. Nat Geo and Nike partnered to tell the story of this incredible journey in #Breaking2, premiering tonight at 8/7c on National Geographic.
  • Video by @bertiegregory. A trevally shatters the peace on a coral reef in the Red Sea at last light. Watching this frame by frame, I am pretty sure this predatory fish's hunt was unsuccessful. The anthias and other reef fish made the very sensible decision of feeding in the water close to the safety of the coral so could quickly take cover. I had absolutely no idea the trevally was coming, I just happened to be pointing the camera in the right direction. I'm always grateful when wildlife cooperates as most of the time it has other plans! Follow @bertiegregory for more wildlife adventures.
  • Photo by @petekmuller. A view of the Great Rift Valley in central Kenya as seen from the air. The Rift is one of East Africa's most remarkable topographic features. What appears in this region is but a small portion of the greater phenomenon, which technically spans some 6,000 km (3,700 miles) from the Middle East to the African country of Mozambique. It's an awe inspiring natural feature. #Kenya #Africa #RiftValley #nature #environment
