Nearly a million people remain displaced from their homes in the Indian state of Kerala, as it recovers from the worst floods in a century.

The quantity of rain that has caused the flooding was unprecedented: two and half times the normal quantity for August so far.

It's likely no one factor caused Kerela's flooding. But human activity and inactivity seems to have made them worse
