The heat evaporates the moisture in the soil rapidly leading to widespread drought conditions. The changes in ocean temperatures are modifying the ocean currents, thus creating erratic and extreme weather conditions - creating more intense and frequent storms and cyclones; thus creating cycles of floods and drought.
We have been experiencing heat waves and cold waves which are much higher than normal.Our glaciers are melting rapidly and threaten to flood the Northern plains, modify the salinity of the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal, and also may result in the log-term drying of our rivers.
