Australia Is Heading Toward an Unprecedented Megadrought
Manage episode 516826665 series 2914294
Australia is facing something pretty scary—a megadrought that could be unlike anything it’s seen before. Scientists say the country’s dry spells are getting longer and more intense, with some areas already suffering from severe water shortages. This megadrought could last for decades, making it harder for farmers to grow crops and putting pressure on wildlife and the environment. It’s all linked to climate change, with rising temperatures making droughts worse. People in Australia are being urged to conserve water and prepare for tough conditions ahead. The big question is: how will the country adapt to this looming crisis?
