Question

which population should be reduced for reducing the possibility of drought​

Answer 1

Answer:

Among the many predicted geophysical consequences of climate change for human populations (IPCC 2013), we know that extreme droughts have the potential for particularly severe damage to human economies, livelihoods and health—even beyond their impact on natural resources and ecosystems (IPCC 2014; Kelley et al. 2015; Reyna 2010). Drought ranks first among natural disasters in terms of the number of people affected (Mishra and Singh 2010), and between 1992 and 2001 it was by a substantial margin the primary cause of death (277,574 deaths), followed by floods (96,507), earthquakes (77,756), and storms (60,447) (Dilley 2005)
