BendiNewsTest: There’s a 50% Chance the Southwest Will Suffer A 30-Year Megadrought in the Next Century

Hi,

This page is currently being developed. This page checks Sustainability Blogs and RSS News Feeds for new content and posts it to here each day. The aim is to share information related to sustainability which is relevant to people living in Central Victoria while also providing a channel for international sustainability information. I am just discovering the Internets information sharing potential. I'd like to help other not so tech savvy people learn how to find interesting and new Sustainability info. Please tell me your favorite blogs or news sources and I will add them to the list.

Thanks

There’s a 50% Chance the Southwest Will Suffer A 30-Year Megadrought in the Next Century

A new report from Cornell University, the U.S Geological Survey and the University of Arizona warns that there’s a 50% chance the southwest United States will experience a decade-long drought in the near feature. But that’s not the worst of it – there’s also a 20-50% chance that the region will face a massive megadrought lasting over 30 years.
