Climate change is the reason
Gary Lackman, Professor of Atmospheric Science at North Carolina State University, says that the whole world is currently facing the brunt of climate change. Due to this, incidents of severe storms and very bad weather are coming to the fore. Due to climate change, there has been a drought in some places and severe flood situation has arisen in some places. These are very dangerous signs.
