Art of Living: Understanding Drought Causes

Description:

A protracted absence of precipitation results in drought, a type of natural calamity. Drought is caused by a number of variables, including changes in weather patterns brought about by climate change. Because they lower groundwater levels, deforestation and excessive use of water resources exacerbate drought. Drought conditions can also be made worse by human activities like manufacturing and agriculture. Effective drought mitigation and water conservation initiatives depend on an understanding of these causes. – PowerPoint PPT presentation

Art of Living The Root Causes of Drought
  • Water Conservation

Introduction
  • A natural disaster known as a drought happens
    when there is an extended lack of moisture,
    leaving a region without enough water. It's a
    complicated phenomenon with potentially
    significant effects on society, the economy, and
    the environment. Although droughts are a regular
    occurrence in Earth's climate, they can differ
    greatly in intensity and length, which presents
    serious difficulties for populations all over the
    planet.
