Change in australian deserts
|
In 2006 Australia's rainfall continued to increase which in turn, caused a decrease in Australia's deserts due to more greenery across the landscape.
Now in the present, due to global climate change altering key tropical circulations, deserts in Australia are changing and expanding further south. Rainfall is also gradually decreasing and will eventually be too low for native plants and animals too survive. If carbon emissions continue to rise, Australia's landscape will be unbalanced, deserts will engulf other biomes thus endangering other species of plants and animals. |
Change for foodA group of people led by German have bought a large piece of land in Australian outback territory. They have built an experimental greenhouse which holds promising solution of world food problems. They call themselves Sundrop Farms and are working in South Australia.
Their work has been quite a success as they have been able to grow “something-from-nothing”. Using the sun they have been able to remove salt from seawater for watering their plants and to heat up or cool down in their greenhouse. With their technology have been able to grow good quality, pest free vegetables all year round in our burning deserts. So far the food they have been able to grow is tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers by the tonne. Sundrops technology will help many countries grow food in their hot dry lands. This will change many food problems in the world, making possible to still produce lots of food during droughts. |
