So, where does the water all go? Like I get deserts are a thing but how are all of them drying up? Like is the h2o breaking down and stopping being water? Is it all going into the ocean and never coming back? Like I get that warming is changing things but I'm confused how rivers are all drying up at once.

Rivers are estimated to be 0.06% of all water on the planet, of which 96% is the ocean, literal drop in the bucket
