CSIRO report predicts Australian drought will continue
A report by Australia's Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) finds that Australia's climate is now permanently hotter and drier, and the country faces major temperature rises and significantly less rainfall by 2070. It predicts that rainfall in parts of eastern Australia will drop 40 percent by 2070, with a seven degree Celsius rise in temperature. By 2030 the risk of bushfires will be higher, droughts more severe and rainfall and stream run-off lower.
