If only they would have left Momo’s species off the ark.

So a reservoir with poor resource management is going dry and now its climate change.

A lack of rainfall and poor resource management has left communities in the region struggling for water.

Well damn, now I'm SKART - they come up with some really good names don't they!!??

Climate Change - do any of us think we really are going to do anything about it?  Human population is growing at an exponential rate.  If we don't ADAPT and CHANGE with the climate, they yeah, some people will DIE.  Maybe even a few turtles...  But we humans will continue to do what it takes to survive, no matter the change that ensues.  Some people will move to more suitable climates, others will remain in a desert in hopes of a reservoir refilling.  Others will want to take your money and fly around in private jets telling you they can do something about it.  Pftt... The climate will continue to change, and it may even revert back to what it was 10k years ago, in 10k years...

For every place on this planet we can pluck an ancient civilization that has crumbled (Under any circumstance related to Climate), we can probably find one that has thrived.  Quite amazing isn't it??
