In Climate news, CO2 gets all the coverage, but water is an exceedingly important factor in climate change. Many of our climate related problems, such as floods, droughts and wildfires are, by their nature, broken water cycles. But we are told that floods, wildfires and droughts are a product of "climate change," as if we have to wait for "climate change" to be fixed before we can deal with flooding, droughts and wildfires.
This episode offers a different perspective. Flooding, droughts and wildfires, as well as habitat loss and food shortages are a direct result of what we do to the land. If we treat the land better, we will mitigate these “climate”-related problems.
