Quzhou mountain village is in an emergency, and firefighters supply water to solve people's worries. What are the hazards of drought?

Due to the continuous high temperature weather in the south and the decrease of precipitation, water use is difficult in some areas and remote rural areas, including Sikou Village, Dazhou Town, Quzhou District, Quzhou City. Due to the long-term drought and lack of rain, the mountain spring water has dried up and the water in the reservoir has been used up, which has caused great difficulties for local villagers to use water. Relevant departments received local calls for help and reported to the fire department. The fire rescue team immediately sent a fire truck to deliver water to the village to solve the problem that the local hot and dry weather caused farmers to have difficulty in using water. The water tanker transported by the fire department is loaded with 12 tons of drinking water, and it takes a rugged mountain road to reach the reservoir halfway up Sikou Village. When firefighters arrived at the scene, they found that the water in the pool had already been used up, and immediately transported the drinking water in the tank to the reservoir by laying a water supply belt, which solved the problem of local villagers in time.

Due to the long-term high temperature weather, the reduction of rainfall will lead to drought, and the most direct harm of drought is to reduce the production and harvest of local crops, which has a great impact on animal husbandry and affects pasture and animal husbandry products. When there is a serious drought, people's drinking water will not be guaranteed, and human beings can only use groundwater to maintain their normal living needs and the development of industry and agriculture. Excessive exploitation of groundwater will lead to the decline of water level and land subsidence. A series of ecological problems such as seawater intrusion have threatened human life, making fires more likely to occur in dry season and difficult to control and put out. With the continuous increase of temperature, drought occurs in some areas, while the temperature in woodland is higher and the dry season in grassland is longer, which increases the possibility of fire. This also sounded the alarm for us. We should always protect our ecological environment, reduce more greenhouse gas emissions, and advocate green travel and low-carbon life.
