Description

The exercise immerses participants in the deepening effects of a catastrophic drought scenario. As water scarcity intensifies, sectors and regions grapple with limited resources. Agricultural companies and farmers face declining crop yields and constrained irrigation options, while industries reliant on water struggle to secure supplies. Local governments implement rationing measures, while dust storms exacerbate the challenges, impacting energy generation and public health. Companies specializing in water management, precision farming, and renewable energy play pivotal roles in adaptation. Governments and community organizations focus on emergency response and support for vulnerable populations. The combined moves emphasize the urgency of coordinated actions across sectors to mitigate impacts and build resilience.
