IMG_2761_drought.jpg Red Gum trees are iconic Australian trees that grow along the banks of the Murray River. They rely on a regular flood cycle to survive. The unprecedented drought of the last 15 years has lead to low river levels on the Murray River. This and upstream dams taking water out for irrigation has vastly reduced the seasonal flooding. As a result 75% of the Red gums are either dead or dying. Climate change will only increase the likelihood that these trees and the wild life that they support are left increasingly vulnerable.

IMG_2932_flood levels.jpg A marker showing flood levels on the Murray River at the port of Echuca, Australia. An unprecedented drought has resulted in much lower river levels on the Murray. The Murray used to flood every winter, but partly due to the drought and partly due to dams upstream, it last flooded 20 years ago.

IMG_3002_irrigation.jpg An irrigation ditch near Echuca, Victoria, Australia. Victoria has been gripped by an unprecedented drought for the last 10 years. Farming has suffered greatly and would be impossible to grow crops or rear animals without irrigation water which is getting increasingly expemnsive for farmers to purchase.

IMG_5581_parched.jpg Dessicated farmland near Echuca in Victoria, Australia. Most of Victoria and New South Wales have been gripped by the worst drought in living memory for the last 15 years. Stocking rates on many farms in these areas have dropped dramatically as the land can no longer grow sufficient grass to support as many animals as it used to. This has lead to many farms becoming less profitable and some farmers having to abandon the land altogether.
