Recent research using decades of NASA satellite data has uncovered a dramatic and unprecedented loss of freshwater from Earth's continents. The studies 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 contributing to a dangerous feedback loop with sea level rise. The findings highlight that the planet's freshwater resources are vanishing much faster than previously understood, posing severe risks to agriculture, drinking water supplies, and ecosystem health. Experts warn that urgent action is needed to manage water use and address climate change to prevent further depletion.
