Climate changeSlashdot: Grist
•83% Informative
Global warming has made 77 percent of the Earth ’s land drier over the past three decades .
Drylands now make up more than 40% of the planet, a likely permanent consequence of climate change.
By 2050 , more than two-thirds of land worldwide, with the exception of Greenland and Antarctica , is expected to store less water.
The more arid an area is, the less freshwater is available.
That requires farmers to rely upon brackish water, increasing soil salinity.
10 countries, including China , Russia , and the United States , account for 70 percent of the planet’s salt-affected soils.
This costs the global agriculture sector at least $27 billion every year .
