A journalist and CNN corporate sales exec quits her job to pursue a Masters program, and help Malawi farmers create a video for neighboring villages about ways they have learned to adapt to climate change and preserve their livelihoods in the wake of new flooding in the fields.

Thanks to education provided by the Malawian Red Cross, one village has taken real action and begun adapting their activities in simple ways, such as substituting maize crops with rice, and replacing their chickens (that drown during flooding) with ducks that float.
