Global warming – the supply of fresh water on Earth has fallen to a new alarming low – UNIAN
NASA satellites have discovered that climate change is driving the world into a dangerous phase of global drying.
Earth's total supply of fresh water has fallen to an alarming new low, and it could be a sign that climate change is driving the world into a dangerous phase of global drying. Live Science writes about this with reference to the results of a study published by Surveys in Geophysics.
It is noted that since 2015, the planet's lakes, rivers and aquifers have lost about 1,200 cubic kilometers of fresh water, which is equivalent to two and a half times the depletion of Lake Erie.
Scientists point out that this drop coincided with the El Niño warming period from 2014 to 2016. Scientists generally expect freshwater levels to recover after climate change…
