The mainstream climate scientists may depict China’s drought, and those of much of the US and Europe as due to climate change, but that is just speculation. Droughts come and go, and will be coming and going long after we have gone. And, call it what one may, the facts still remain that this is a catastrophe for China and the world dependent upon food, industrial materials, consumer goods from China, all still needed by the rest of the world. According to the globalist Foreign Affairs journal: “Unlike other commodities, water does not have any viable substitutes. “It is essential for growing food, generating energy, and sustaining humanity. For China, water has also been crucial to the country’s rapid development: currently, China consumes ten billion barrels of water per day – about 700 times its daily oil consumption. Four decades of explosive economic growth, combined with food security policies that aim at national self-sufficiency, have pushed northern China’s water system beyond a sustainable level, and they threaten to do the same in parts of southern China as well.” Consequently, the Chinese communist authorities are seeding clouds and doing everything except rain dances. It is unclear what good this is doing.
