Vietnam forest fires rise sharply in drought


Vietnam forest fires rise sharply in drought

In my opinion, the most dangerous event that destroys the environment is drought, and I have three main reason for that. Firstly, I regularly read the news about drought in Thailand, and I realize how danger it was. Another was that it made farmers lost some money since they had to crop.The last was that it made environment getting worse. Therefore, I will summarize the news about the drought in Vietnam which results in forest fires.

In Hanoi, Drought-driven forest fires this year that already had consumed a greater area than before, 2008 or 2009 said by officials. Said by Do Thanh Hai, the fires had burned 1,600 hectares of forest this year. That area was more than 10 times the rate measured in the first two months of 2008 or 2009, which each saw just more than 140 hectares destroyed. He also said that from October to February, the fires on a drought had left Vietnam's north-western provinces with almost no rainfall. Moreover, he said "Such a long-lasting drought is somewhat strange and dry weather and high temperatures are coinciding with the time when farmers burn their fields to prepare for cultivation, which creates a serious risk of forest fires." In addition, Vietnam faced with a dry season in the north-west on November to February, and Central Highlands were drought during April to September, Related to a strong El Nino phenomenon,the most devastating weather that had ever happened in USA
. Vietnam's north had experienced drought this winter that was the warming of waters in the Pacific Ocean. Furthermore, the Red River in Hanoi was measured at its lowest level in more than 100 years.

This news was not really good news for Vietnam since the government should do something to stop the drought that will destroy their environment.Moreover, there were a couple of things I got after reading. One was the knowledge of drought in Vietnam because it told how danger the drought in Vietnam was, and the other was the knowledge El Nino phenomenon.
