Climate Change & Religion

Climate changes are affecting some rituals made in rivers. Like this Hindu people that have their ritual in the Ganges River, one of the most endangered rivers of the world. Some glaciers that feed it are disappearing because of global warming. If these glaciers disappear, the Ganges river will dry up and these rituals won't be made. Not going so far away, the Yaquis also live around the Rio Yaqui and the Oviachi. They make some rituals and use that water for basic needs, but if we continue wasting water, these water supplys will disappear before we realize it.
