An aerial shot taken with a drone shows the dried-out riverbed of the Jialing River, a major tributary of the Yangtze River, in Chongqing, China, 21 August 2022. China is experiencing its most severe drought and longest heat wave in decades, with the country issuing on 18 August its first nationwide drought alert in nine years and another heat wave red alert during the weekend. The extreme heat wave is affecting farm crops, power supplies and shipping routes, as water levels reach record lows. According to the Yangtze River Water Resources Commission, rainfall in the Yangtze River basin fell around 30 percent in July and was 60 percent lower than normal standards in August, the lowest since the same period in 1961. Part of the Yangtze river channel flowing through the urban area of Chongqing dried up and approaches record-low water levels in the city. EPA-EFE/STRINGER

A ‘bathtub ring’ of mineral deposits left by higher water levels is visible beyond Elephant Butte Dam at the drought-stricken Elephant Butte Reservoir on August 15, 2022 near Truth or Consequences, New Mexico. New Mexico’s largest reservoir is currently at 3.8 percent of its total capacity in spite of recent monsoon rains in the state. According to officials, water levels at Elephant Butte have been below average since around 2019 and the lake has not been able to meet full levels of irrigation demand for several years. Experts say that in spite of the monsoon rains bringing temporary relief to parts of the Southwest, the climate change-fueled megadrought remains entrenched in the West.

A man walks through corn crops on the farm amid drought, in the village on the outskirts of Jiujiang, Jiangxi Province, China, 25 August 2022. China issued an alert as heatwave and drought put autumn harvest at risk urging local authorities to take all available measures to ensure crops survive the hottest summer on record. Mrs. Lile, a grape farmer who lives on the outskirts of Jiujiang city, explained that her grapes were 40 percent affected by the drought as no one wants to buy soft grapes. However, living by the hydro plant benefits her as other people struggle. ‘I don’t think to move to another place as food and drought are natural’, she added. Jiangxi Province has been experiencing severe drought since 15 July. China’s long-running and severe heatwave caused a record-breaking drought across the country, causing some rives to dry up, including parts of the Yangtze River. A lady from Jiangxi Province, Mrs. Jiang, complained that her garden is severely affected by the heat and lack of water. ‘Crops died’, she said. China’s usually water-rich south has been power rationing causing blackouts as the hydropower capacity drastically decreased. Last week Sichuan province rationed public electricity usage or suspended the power supply to thousands of factories due to the power shortage. EPA-EFE/ALEX PLAVEVSKI
