Climate Change is causing dire consequences for the Greater Mekong region
The consequences of climate change is getting worse as each day passes.
From shrinking ice caps to drawn out drought seasons, it seems that every country across the globe has experience some sort of impact from the drastic changes in weather patterns. And one of climate change’s victims, Southeast Asia’s trans-boundary river, the Mekong River is in danger.
The Mekong River stretches for more than 4,350 kilometres from its source in China and flows through Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, and Cambodia. It then joins the South China Sea in Vietnam.
Countries where the Mekong River flows through are considered as part of the Greater Mekong region.
