Great story and graphic video demonstration of one compenent of climate change.
I still find it amazing this lack of will amongst most scientists in China when it comes to criticizing Chinese policies. This may be something of a misquote, but my experience shows it may well not be:
"Our biggest concern today is not man-made problems, it is climate change and water resources" Excuse me??? Climate change and you overdrafting of water supplies ARE FUNDAMENTALLY a "man-made" problem. We have all seen the consequence of such incorrect phrasing and articulation. We are creating this mess. I would hope we could be mature enough to own up to the problem and face it head on.
This story also does a good job of putting yet another face of the greatest victims of climate change; the poor who eek out a living in marginal environs.
