20120408_IMG_4144.jpg A dried up river bed in the Anti Atlas mountains of Morocco, North Africa. In recent years, rainfall totals have reduced by around 75% as a result of climate change. This has led to many Berber villagers abandoning their fields and migrating to the cities to try and find work, as they can no longer grow food to support themselves.

20100713_IMG_4176.jpg Thirlmere reservoir in the Lake District UK, with a hosepipe ban in affect in the North West. United Utilities applied for the drought order, after the driest start to the year since 1929, with less than 50% of normal rainfall. The drought comes hot on the heals of the worst floods that Cumbria has ever seen, when in November 2009, United Utilities had to open the emergency valves to let water out, as the dam was in danger of collapsing when the water reached unprecendented high levels. Climate modelling shows that as the atmosphere warms we are more likely to move to a cycle of flood followed by drought.
