Thanks for the video. It brings home the reality of changing weather patterns around the globe.
BTW
In Las Vegas, NV you'd think there wasn't a drought by seeing all of the swimming pools in people's yards and the fountains at the casinos. - 3 years ago

Weather has been weird here in the Midwest. Kansas weather is changing and that means the rains are not the kind we need to provide for crops.
I saw what California was like when they had a 7 year drought and it was damn scary. Believe it. It could happen here and will happen here if we do not take action.

"Spain's pain over lack of rain," that is the best title I have ever seen. I think that WWIII (if it ever happens) will be over water.

The global rain patterns are in flux. It could be any one of us next.

I am glad we are afraid, depressed, angry and talking. It would be worse if we just looked at these droughts and food riots, and pollution and say, "So what is new. Same ole same ole."
I say yes to constructive energy that is driven by fear and anger.

It is so frightening. Without water we will cease to exist. We have squandered so much yet I believe that with commitment and ingenuity we can solve these problems

If it weren't for the ongoing anger, I'd be horribly depressed right now.
Terrific video, though.
Thanks. - 3 years ago
