The Brazilian Geological Survey (SGB) found that the Paraguay River was 62 centimeters below its reference level, the lowest level ever measured at the Ladario post, near the city of Corumbá (MS), on the border with Porto Quijarro (Bolivia), thus surpassing the 61 cms recorded in 1964, Agencia Brasil reported.

The standard level is an average depth of 5 meters (m), according to the Mato Grosso do Sul Environment Institute (Imasul), which had already warned of the river's lowest historical level last Wednesday. The station serves as a reference for the Brazilian Navy when analyzing conditions for navigation and defining restrictive measures.


....

The decade has been marked by insufficient rainy seasons for the recovery of reserves. The SGB also found that during the rainy season that began in October 2023 an accumulated deficit of 395 (millimeters) mm of rain was recorded. The estimated total was 702 mm, while the expected average was 1,097 mm. In the decade, considering the accumulated from 2020 to 2024, the deficit was approximately 1,020 mm, equivalent to the total of one hydrological year.

People will still deny it is happening or they will fight over the cause...

Probably because Nestle's down there pumping their water sources dry and selling it.

Now facts are hysteria in your world.

Sucks to be you. I cannot imagine living like that.
 
I do? Can you link to post of me saying that?

Just one? If you can do that I will leave the board forever.
Wish I could, that'd be something! :D

All I can do is link to Nestle's presence there:

not sure a plant in Paraguay is making the water level in Brazil lower.
 
You want to rob the US of trillions of dollars to fight climate change

That makes it political

Since I know you lack the integrity to come clean, here are some of my past post on climate change...

I do not know how much mankind has influenced the changing climate, but I do know it is changing.

I think the fight over the cause is stupid and just a waste of time. Even if you could prove 100% it was our fault tomorrow, people would not change their lifestyles to save the planet.

Thus what needs to be done is to focus on how to deal with the changes and mitigate the damage and take advantage of the benefits.

But as long as the fight over climate change is political, those things cannot happen.

My point is simple, the climate is changing and it it going to impact humans. We can choose to be like you and Otto and sealybobo and fight over the cause and whether it was hotter a million years ago or not. But really what is the point of that?

Or we can work to mitigate the harm from the changing climate and work to take advantage of the positive parts of the climate changing.

I live in the mid-west of the US. I work in the Ag industry. In this area the rain patterns have changed rather drastically over the past 20 years or so. Right now the total amount of rain is roughly the same, but how we get it has changed. Instead of of rain 10 to 12 days out of the month with only a few days in-between we get rain maybe 3 days a month, all in a row and massive amounts of rain when we get it.

What is the big deal you might ask, and the question is that crops do not do well going 3 to 4 weeks with no rain. They also do not do well getting a months worth of rain in a day or two. So farmers in the area, some who have been on the same land for 5 or more generations are having to add irrigation and tiling to their land, something that has not ever been needed. This is expensive and also has its own environmental concerns.

This is just one of a million examples. This thread is not about CO2, it is not about if humans are the cause or not, because it just does not matter.

This thread is about "hey look you morons, shit is happening, quit fighting over the cause and whether it was hotter back when humans lived in caves".

But that is just too much of an ask I guess. Politics kills everything it touches.

You are peddling doomsday

Tell us what you want to do

Other than pretending to be the only smart person in the room
 
not sure a plant in Paraguay is making the water level in Brazil lower.
The Pantanal River is the 2nd longest river in the world. It's highly regarded and important in Brazil. It's even featured in a John Grisham book.
I haven't heard of the Paraguay River.

Paraguay is to Brazil kinda like Mexico is to the US. Brazil sets up borders and tries to keep them out. Same with Bolivia.

Yes, there's a "free zone" border area where you can cross back and forth across borders without checking in or having papers....makes for a Tijuana type flea market zone.
 
I am doing no such thing.

You know what, just fuck off and die

you are not worth it.
I challenged you to stop bitching about how dumb you think everyone else is and instead get off the fence and propose some action

And predictably you refuse to do so
 
The Pantanal River is the 2nd longest river in the world.

It is not even in the top 10. are you ever not wrong?


Perhaps you were thinking of the The Pantanal wetlands which is about 200 times the size of the Everglades, and it borders the Paraguay River, the one you have never heard of.

The Paraguay River flows through Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay and Argentina and is just under 1750 miles long.

Exactly why we rely on Critical Thinkers .
The true cause(s) lead to and dictate the optimum solutions.

Which is nice and easy for Sheeple when there is a single Cause and Effect relationship to see .
But once it is more complex , you need independent specialists who are not obligated to Deep State at some minion level

If you cannot moderate your tone....
I'm going to make you a "persona non grata". Shame too because every once in a while you actually have valuable information to offer.
But it's old and childish at this point in time.
Otherwise is trolling. And I don't feed the trolls.
This is your Last chance.
