It's my hope that you are doing so great in your respective residential areas.
I am too doing very fine and sound live this morning here in my country.
The climate in my country is continuing deteriorating as time elapses. However my geographical location is being affected by the drought conditions and it has been considered as an arid and semi arid land (ASALS)
However this is caused by the unexpectedly climatic changes that is going through the whole world. The government has been sensitising the people against deforestation and charcoal burning but because of the poverty that is evident abundantly in the country people are burning the charcoal for sell in order for them to make their ends meet.
Subsequently this has caused the reduction of forests which results into loss of the rains for like two years for now.
Despite the meteorological department forecasting the possibility of the rain towards the end of the year 2022, it has not rained till now.
There is alot of dust here, cattle are dying due to lack of pastures and water and even people walk hundreds of kilometres in search of water.
We are in a Such dreadful situation.
I have no idea what is going on your country as far as the climate is concerned.
I wish you a nice time while my loting.

I'm sorry your country is in such dire drought conditions. The western portion of the United States was in a dire state; but now heavy rains have come, causing floods and mudslides. We are getting snow in our portion of the country. I hope you get rain soon.

I thought you were talking about Brazil (re: cutting down the forest) until I checked your country. Your post made me think back at the time we rarely had any rain for almost 10 years, but 3 last years in that lot were the worse. Thank God that we have got rain again in the last decade or so.
