The Impacts

 

Our Exclusive Interviews
with four individuals who have been affected


This section provides about El Niņo what no El Niņo site, what no El Niņo TV special, what no newspaper, and what no other type of media can give.
Here, you can read or hear clips of the interviews that we held through the telephone, mail, or if we were lucky, through the internet.  From this section, you will get a chance to hear first-hand accounts of what El Niņo really does to people; you will hear about not only the negatives but also the positives.
