Vast African lake levels dropping fast
Lake Victoria, the size of Ireland, in Africa is drying up. By this article it seems that over consumption and global warming are the culprits. Which then makes you ask who are the culprits of consumption and global warming?
The outflow through two hydroelectric dams at Jinja is part of the problem — a tiny part, says the Uganda government, or half the problem, say environmentalists. But much of what is happening to Victoria and other lakes across the heart of Africa is attributable to years of drought and rising temperatures, conditions that starve the lakes of inflowing water and evaporate more of the water they have.
