This summer's record drought led China to rely more on coal as its hydropower waned — yet these thirsty power stations further exacerbated water shortages.
In this in-depth blog post by our Head of Data Insights @SebKennedy, we use satellite data to explore the interplay between #energysecurity and #watersecurity in China.

#AR6 WG2 chapter 9 speaks of
700 million Africans
displaced by #waterstress
by 2030.
700 million, that is half the continent by 2030, and only 300m short of the 1 billion by 2050 the PM spoke of. But within 8 years.
Also 435million malnourished Africans by 2030, 1/4 of the continent.
If someone wants to understand #juststopoil and #LastGeneration, please do a fulltext search in AR6-WG2 for "by 2030", "in 2030", "by 2040". You'll see why we who face that fear porn / research results are desperate.
