Borrego Badlands (Dusk)

BORREGO SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA - MARCH 23: Dusk falls over the Borrego Badlands in Anza-Borrego Desert State Park, which is threatened by climate change, on March 23, 2022 near Borrego Springs, California. A 2021 UC Irvine study found that native vegetation declined close to 40 percent from 1984 to 2017 in California’s Colorado Desert region which includes the park. Researchers concluded that drought and ‘new temperature extremes’ of increased heat in the summer contributed to the vegetation die off.
