How climate change is making salt farming unsustainable

Climate change is expected to drastically alter the lives of future generations. But, its effects are already visible across the world. In the Little Rann of Kutch, a generation of farmers have been harvesting salt for centuries. But over the years, unpredictable rainfall, rising temperatures and frequent dust storms have reduced their yield, making it harder to sustain this practice.

In India, before a truck goes through the Himalayas they bless the truck. In the West before a truck goes through the mountains they check the brakes. I suspect there is a similar mind set regarding your dying salt industry.
