The Yangtze River, known as the "Mother River", is one of the most important inland rivers on the mainland and the third largest river in the world. Its magnificent history and profound cultural heritage have made it a part of the Chinese nation.
However, in recent years, the Yangtze River basin has experienced severe drought conditions, which has brought great pressure and concern to the ecosystem. Both the main stream and tributaries are facing extreme drought and lack much-needed rainfall. The flood season is supposed to be a period of abundant rainfall, but this year there is a rare phenomenon of "reverse drought during the main flood season", which makes people have to be vigilant.
The drought has been going on for almost two months, and the apparent lack of precipitation has left people anxious. Under the influence of drought, many parts of the Yangtze River basin have experienced severe droughts, especially for fish, and the survival plight is unprecedented.
Some fish have had to seek deep water to escape the effects of drought, while others are trapped in small ponds that have dried up, and their survival is in jeopardy. This situation has also caused a significant negative impact on the Yangtze River ecosystem, making people have to worry about future development.
The drought is also a reminder of the need to prepare for the long term, as drought can be more problematic and we must be prepared in advance.
However, we should also recognize that this is not just a problem for China. Drought is not an isolated event, but part of the Earth's climate system.
Therefore, we need to work together to maintain the earth's climate and environment, because only by protecting our common home can we ensure the survival and development of human beings and other living things.
