Victoria's world-famous African waterfall shoals to record levels, reports The Guardian.
Attracting millions of tourists to Zambia and Zimbabwe, the waterfall has become a trickle due to severe drought.
During the drought period, Victoria Falls has traditionally become shallow, but this year the decrease in water level was a record.
Drought in southeastern Africa has already caused 45 million people to need food supplies from outside due to crop destruction.
Power outages are observed in Zimbabwe and Zambia, since a significant part of the country's electricity is received from the Carib Hydroelectric Power Station on the Zambezi River.
Experts fear that climate change may completely destroy Victoria Falls. But The Guardian cites the opinions of other scientists who recall that there have always been seasonal variations in climate, there have always been periods of drought. If they become more frequent, then perhaps it will be possible to start talking about climate change..
