India Faces Water Crisis as Climate Change Gets Worse

Experts warn that India is facing a serious water crisis due to the effects of climate change.

The country currently relies heavily on underground water for irrigation, especially for staple crops like wheat and rice.

However, rising temperatures are causing the land to dry up and not enough water is being replenished underground.

If steps are not taken to conserve water, the underground water supply in India could decrease significantly in the coming decades.
