Show transcript
Flooding occurs when an area of land is covered with water, especially from rain. Floods can cause damage to crops, when air cannot get the the roots and they rot. Floods affect some parts of the world more than others. The air all around our planet is warming up, and warmer air can hold more water. The extra water in the air falls as extra rain, and can cause flooding.
