Consequences of drought

Periods of drought can have significant environmental, agricultural, health, economic and social consequences. Examples include:
• Death of livestock.
• Reduced crop yields.
• Wildfires, such as Australian bushfires, are more common during times of drought.[28]
• Shortages of water for industrial users
• Dust storms, when drought hits an area suffering from desertification and erosion
• Malnutrition, dehydration and related diseases.
• Famine due to lack of water for irrigation.
• Social unrest.
• Substandard or highly limited crop growth or yield productions.
• Mass migration, resulting in internal displacement and international refugees.
• War over natural resources, including water and food.
• Reduced electricity production due to insufficient available coolant for power stations and reduced water flow through hydroelectric dams.
• Snakes have been known to emerge and snakebites become more common.
• Creates windblown dust bowls which erodes the landscape, damages terrestrial and aquatic wildlife habitat

Merahba dear Selahattin
Fantastic selection of motiv and realisation. I like this angle of taking a shot of thios flower, from back. Very dramatic sky. Picture full with fillings
Best wishes my friend

Hi Selahattin,
This is a clever and engaging view of a floral presentation. The dorsal view is most appropriate in capturing the lovely greyish/bluish sky. Well exposed, the stripes from the petal's dorsal view is well defined. My best regards, Danilo

Perfect....

Çok selam.

hi Selahattin

Symbolic flower on the sky BG for this title and it is really a tradition in many parts of the world. I wonder this used to be so universal for people of past ages to pray for rain by witch craft.

tfs, bill
