View of a dead fish floating in the polluted waters of the Maracaibo lake near an oil rig, off the coast of Maracaibo, Venezuela, on September 7, 2021. - Leaks, rusted pipes, pieces of broken equipment scattered about and staircases leading nowhere: Lake Maracaibo's old oilfield is a metaphor for the once-flourishing Venezuelan petroleum industry now on its knees. Zulia state, where the lake is, was the birthplace of Venezuela's oil industry more than a century ago. (Photo by Federico PARRA / AFP)
