China 6 months ago. "We have flood like never before, once in a century flood" and now it dry up.
I live in a rainy part in Canada and I never appreciate being able to sit in the shower for like 20 min and relax
That's what they got from messing nature to it's core
now they don't need bridges to cross the river !
Im not a big fan of religion but i hope they dont destroy that statue.
Blame it on climate change; yet it was normally that low for so long that someone could casually create the statue in the rock. Maybe we were just over flooded for a long time
climate change
this is becoming more and more common. interesting how the worlds warmer than 30 years ago but certain people dont wanna admit the problems. Not all of it is to climate change but its def not helping
Drought or the hundreds of dams they have built?

What’s happening in the world ? Some places drowning and some places in drought ? Yet we are in the verge of WW – 3

Put in a massive dam, turn off the water, the media has a field day.

600 year old stone in the middle of a river

Must of found a lot of abandoned chopsticks on the bottom
Karma? They did the same to Vietnam
I'm scared, not only some parts of America is drying up, but also in other countries
They are the one that pollute the most…you reap what you sow
No climate problem. We have only clash between us
Remember this it was a man made river notice how the man made water sources are drying up
They can transfer to Mars
