Der Klimawandel bewirkt nicht nur eine Regenminderung in den Sommermonaten, sondern auch eine Zunahme der Sturmböste. Wenn der Regen so hart und schnell fällt, kann er nicht in den Boden sinken und zu den Aquiferen hinuntergehen.

The saddest fact of climate change - and the chief reason we should be concerned about finding a proper response - is that the countries it will hit hardest are already among the poorest and most long-suffering.
