New research using decades of NASA satellite data has uncovered a dramatic and unprecedented loss of freshwater from Earth's continents. The findings show that rising temperatures, increased evaporation, and over-extraction of groundwater are rapidly depleting underground water reserves worldwide. This crisis is not only worsening droughts but also creating a dangerous feedback loop with sea level rise. The loss of freshwater threatens agriculture, drinking water supplies, and the overall stability of ecosystems. Scientists warn that urgent action is needed to manage water resources and address the impacts of climate change.
