NASA-German satellites reveal alarming 290 cubic miles loss in Earth’s freshwater resources since 2014
Tuesday, 19 November 2024 ()
A recent study using NASA and German satellite data reveals a concerning decline in Earth's freshwater resources since 2014. Researchers discovered a 290 cubic mile reduction in freshwater storage, attributing it to climate change, extreme weather, and increased groundwater reliance. This depletion, evident in severe droughts worldwide, poses significant threats to global water security and highlights a potential future of water scarcity.
