After moving to Canada, the difference is so obvious! We see school kids happily walking/biking to school in below freezing temperatures. 10 years living in the US, we would hardly see kids around. Unfortunately, same is happening in India as well!

Temperature extremes has a tremendous secondary consequence- that of extreme droughts. Since last 5 years or so, Central America is experiencing an accelerated loss of freshwater.

On India's #IndependenceDay, I'd like to bring your attention to its #watercrises - #India has lost about 15,400 Tmcft of freshwater since 2002. Or 700 Tmcft/yr -Losses from just seven States exceed 800 Tmcft/yr @jayfamiglietti.bsky.social #Groundwater #ClimateChange lnkd.in/gXgvtRnW #NASA #ASU

A reminder that tens of millions of people are being exposed to dangerous levels of wildfire smoke again this summer. Wildfire smoke can be up to 10 times more harmful to people than other sources of smog #wildfire leahy.substack.com/p/wildfire-s...

Thanks @markgongloff.bsky.social and @opinion.bloomberg.com for this great piece and for your excellent question: why are we not treating this like the emergency that it is? @hrishikeshac.bsky.social @wisegrouporg.bsky.social

#NISAR launched successfully! It promises to be a game changer in further observing the #groundwater changes and form an excellent companion to #GRACE (photos from 2018 at #JPL) #NASA #ISRO

We’re draining aquifers faster than nature can refill them — and the water doesn’t disappear. It ends up in the ocean, quietly raising sea levels. www.propublica.org/article/wate... #ContinentalDrying #WaterSecurity #ClimateChange #WaterCycle #ChangingPlanet #ClimateExtremes #NASA #ASU #Groundwater

Check out our latest study - The global landmass has been losing its stored freshwater, thereby reducing the water available for all of us, as well as aiding in the sea level rise. #WaterSecurity #ClimateChange #Groundwater #watercrises #Drought www.science.org/doi/epdf/10....
