๐ Is it just me, or are 'once-in-a-century' floods happening every month?
From submerged cities to record-breaking rainfall, the frequency of devastating floods is skyrocketing. In this episode, we dive deep into the 'Why'โexploring how a warming atmosphere, vanishing wetlands, and poor urban planning are creating a global watery crisis.
๐ In this video, we discuss:
- ๐ก๏ธ The 'Sponge Effect': How warmer air holds more water vapor.
- ๐๏ธ Concrete Jungles: Why our cities act like giant funnels for rainwater.
- ๐ The Loss of Natural Buffers: What happens when wetlands disappear.
- ๐ก๏ธ Survival & Solutions: Can we re-engineer our world to stay dry?
Understanding begins with why.
