CONT

La distribution régionale des précipitations peut changer. [...] Doutant encore des scénarios régionaux, les chercheurs ne savent pas vraiment quelles régions du monde risquent de devenir plus humide, et lesquelles plus sèches. Cependant, compte tenu du fait que les ressources mondiales en eau sont déjà gravement menacées par la rapidité de la croissance démographique et l'expansion de l'activité économique, le danger est patent.
