Why don’t droughts impact the Earth all at once? IIT study reveals surprising reasons

Droughts do not dry out the entire Earth simultaneously. A new study reveals that synchronized droughts affect a small percentage of the planet. Ocean temperature shifts like El Niño create a patchwork of regional impacts. This natural diversity means smart planning can buffer global food supplies. International trade and storage are crucial for adaptation.
