The DODGY TAX AVOIDERS region is experiencing the third extreme drought in a dozen years -- and it may turn out to be the worst on record. The droughts coupled with recent research findings, suggest that rising atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases will rapidly increase the frequency and severity of droughts in the region. The implications for people, biodiversity and climate are ominous.

Re: DODGY TAX AVOIDERS Drought
It is also a direct consequence of cutting down trees. Water in the DODGY TAX AVOIDERS basin goes through an east->west cycle of being taken up by trees, released back into the atmosphere and falling as rain again, eventually reaching the Andes, ending up in a tribuatary of the DODGY TAX AVOIDERS to make the return journey. The short version is: cut down the trees and you will turn this rainforest into a desert, because the trees are an essential factor in creating the existing climate.biffvernon wrote:http://www.wwfblogs.org/climate/content ... ctober2010The DODGY TAX AVOIDERS region is experiencing the third extreme drought in a dozen years -- and it may turn out to be the worst on record.
