The Future of Waterfalls

"It is April 21

and everyone knows that today is Earth Day

Merry Christmas,

Congratulations on your birthday he was born.

And now I try to

I think of something useful and important

Soil type

Everyone is just asked

What are we here?

And what do we do with it?

I do not know ...

What do we do? "

These texts are "What do we do?" From the song Drama Rama since I was in school. It was probably the first rock song I ever heard that dealt with the environment in ways that affect me in any way, just like young people young and naive. But once discovered a passion in my life and have learned much about nature and life in the modern world Down Daddy, I look back on this track, the new Drama Rama respect for their message.

It is obvious that the world's population is made up of lifestyle and comfort you in the trash. But as Niagara Falls part of nature, that is for fans of the resources that I, and in the future?

This article is about how the things that affect global warming and climate change contribute waterfalls on the way of quality. For fans of horror waterfalls future looks bleak as most of the world dries up to sewer or deleted. Important contribution to this trend is changing, rain, erosion and deforestation, and abnormal changes in the flow of water.

Evidence of changes in precipitation patterns around the world are many. In Australia, long-term drought (as a decade in some areas) for much of the country to an increased incidence of forest fire danger Murray-Darling Basin (heavy water restrictions to be held later, stage 5 water restrictions in areas of Queensland to connect the city Brisbane) and pay dry (especially in large parts of Victoria, Queensland, New South Wales and Tasmania). In east Africa, climate change when it needs to famine and regional conflicts over dwindling resources to survive. Kilimanjaro snow fields and ice caps could disappear over the next ten years, which put pressure on the extension of the great river systems like the Nile. Most people can not remember when the rivers and streams ran when they were children no longer works today. From tourism and father and Victoria Falls could become a victim of desertification in the basin of origin.

There are local effects, such as deforestation and soil erosion, which affect negatively the Falls. Driven by financial gain (such as development and agriculture), an area that was once a forest, which in turn support ecosystems and microclimates are gone. Therefore, the flow of temporary and can not afford to freshwater habitats and ecosystems and adjacent ecosystems reminded not last longer, can flow (which will result in reliable rainfall in the area) to balance the micro-climate. This in turn reduces the biodiversity in these areas. Sun organisms based on the activity of these ecosystems play a role in maintaining the balance of play in their survival, will also disappear.

As a result, they no longer contribute to the functioning of ecosystems. In Hawaii, the urban sprawl (eg new settlements and houses), agriculture (eg cattle and harvested sugar) and introduction of pests (eg wild boar, mongoose, mice, goats, mountain, bamboo, etc.) decreased significantly, and the native forests, Endangered freshwater drain storages leave the island became Wind rain. Most of the waterfalls, have been volatile, or not at all - that Hi'ilave Falls, Kaluahine Falls, waterfalls along the Hana Highway Maui Wind poet, and almost all fall in Oahu. Furthermore, deforestation of jungles in South America (especially the Amazon), who meet in their development and industrialization on the needs of the global economy to less rainfall, the threat of facing a large waterfall that Angel Falls, and Iguassu Falls (the only creatures in the forest and freshwater environments are called).

Moreover, activation and changes of water, of course, negative consequences for the waterfall. Much of what drives these activities is the need for energy (in this case plants) and water. With a growing population, integrity, increasing demand for energy and water, to maintain consistency with the larger number of people. Can expect to see more power plants, supply pipes, hot tub, and trenches. In Norway, the energy from hydropower. This led to the sacrifice of many who already is the highest waterfall in the world, and how Mongefossen Tissestrengene Call Fosse Valley to name a few. It is also the threat of legislation and Lang Waterfall Sand Valley Fosse, among others. But there are waterfalls, to share the results of commitment between tourism and energy, and how to choose the Mardalsfossen Vøringsfossen. Advanced Karahnjukar Dam in Iceland and in the process of sinking at least four large waterfalls. Icelanders save struggling rural economy Hydro replaced or deleted, the last wilderness left in Europe. While in Hawaii, along with its problems of deforestation, the widespread transfer of water, so that the food crop cane seat and an ever growing population to appease. This is best done through cuts in the East Maui navodnjavanje almost all rivers Wind Became page Haleakala, which in turn led to all but a few streams fed waterfalls reliable effect as an example.

What is here is that it turns and compromise in the quality of the waterfall, and their presence is just one example of what happens in the world as we plunder resources of this planet continues. There are many things happening out there (for example, our consumption habits in driving larger cars have a bigger house, buy the products that came out of the process that threatens the long term, and many children). So if you are worried about falling or not (let alone the biosphere on Earth), it is clear that action is still opportunity to prevent or at least slow the loss of nature and thus its waterfalls. And when the dark future of this planet is closed, so is my mind and go out and enjoy the rest falls and to preserve the remnants of nature.
