How a future Day Zero can be avoided (Food for Mzansi)

Food for Mzansi (South Africa) published an article stating that global action to limit human-induced warming could give Mzansi enough time to secure enough water to sustain its people. Otherwise, according to researchers, climate shifts by the middle of the next decade may well make Day Zero situations more common. Researchers from the MIT Joint Program on the Science and Policy of Global Change, IFPRI, and the CGIAR have developed modelled projections of 21st-century changes in seasonal surface air temperature and precipitation for South Africa that account for uncertainties in how earth and socioeconomic systems behave and co-evolve.
