El Nino disaster can kill millions of people globally in the future

Large drought, famine that killed more than 50 million people globally in the nineteenth century was warned by scientists that it could recur in the near future.

Global hunger occurred between 1875 and 1878 when the evolution of the El Nino phenomenon became more and more extreme. once caused droughts that stretched from Asia to America, causing terrible famine that killed more than 50 million people.

But it seems that this catastrophe has not shown signs of stopping, but may come back to a much more terrible level if the climate gets worse.

Scientists have warned, in recent studies that with the current warming of the Earth, El Nino will cause catastrophic damage and will cause serious shocks to the system. Global food security.

To give this warning, scientists at the University of Washington (USA) have conducted many studies around data on rainfall, pollution, tree data.

El Nino phenomenon is more and more extreme.

"The El Nino phenomenon and climate events in 1876-1878 are part of the cause of global inequality. However, after more than a century, a terrible disaster may happen again. The global greenhouse effect is expected to make El Nino more intense in the future, 'said PGS Deepti Singh from the University of Washington.

Earlier, in a report published in July 2017, Australian scientists from the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO) said the El Nino extreme weather phenomenon had It is likely to double in the next 35 years, even if global temperatures are stable during that time. This extreme weather phenomenon will even happen twice as much as the current level in 2050.

Experts also said that the extreme El Nino phenomenon will lead to major climate changes, causing phenomena such as drought in Australia or floods in some areas in South America that may cause great economic and social losses.
