is all cleaned up and the leftovers are hopefully in the fridge, it's time to go shopping. today is black friday, traditionally the biggest shopping day of the year. but this holiday season, a number of retailers are being cautious about their sales projections. one reason, a big increase in organized retail crime. carter evans reports. >> reporter: a flash mob of 17 masked thieves pushing past holiday shoppers to rob a nike store this week near los angeles is exactly the kind of crime cities across the country are trying to crack down on. >> to all you shoppers out there, especially visitors in san francisco, i want you to make it rain. >> reporter: after a series of thefts sayred away shoppers, san francisco launched a safe shopping initiative, beefing up patrols to he's jitters. same goes for miami-dade's dolphin mall where k-9s and extra officers will be more visible. >> you're going to be probably the safest you could be

united states. but that flow of goods is now at risk because this 50-mile-long system of locks and lakes that connects two oceans is actually above sea level and doesn't run on ocean water. >> no. it's freshwater from our lake that's manmade. >> so you are reliant on rainfall. >> yes. >> and generally in panama, that happens. >> it's one of the wettest countries in the world. but this year has been an unprecedented dry season. our lake levels are close to the minimum. >> reporter: severe drought is drying up the lakes that feed the canal. plunging water levels so low they've had to cut the number of vessels passing through from 36 to 24 per day, delaying goods and creating a growing waiting room of ships out at sea. some vessels are also being forced to carry up to 40% less cargo and slow down so they don't hit bottom. >> we are really, really looking for freshwater.

>> reporter: rick artie vasquez morales is the canal's administrator. >> the panama canal uses about 2 1/2 time the amount of water the city of new york uses every day. >> every day? wow. >> reporter: moving a single ship through the locks takes 55 to 125 million gallons of water depending on its size. much of that is flushed into the ocean. but the canal authority is now trying to store and reuse as much of it as possible. it's considering diverting water from other rivers and building more reservoirs because the lakes feeding the canal are also the main source of drinking water for nearby panama city. >> how concerned are you about the long-term viability of the panama canal? >> that is my main concern. we are climate-dependent. so this issue of climate change, to us, is real. >> reporter: climate change is making the tropics hotter and dry spells longer. >> here comes the rain. >> here comes the rain, thank

god. >> reporter: except for this sudden downpour, we saw very little rain when we visited in august. panama just experienced its driest october since 1950. >> for us, it's very, very concerning. >> reporter: antonio dominguez is a managing director for shipping giant mers sk, the largest single user of the canal. >> the things we buy are going to be more expensive if this whole operation slows down. >> more expensive and they will be late. >> are you seeing climate change impact your operations around the world? >> everywhere. everywhere you have climate change impacting global kmersz and we need to do something about it. >> reporter: the international shipping industry is part of the problem, responsible for about 3% of planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions, about as much as japan, marry sk is aiming to cut its emissions in half by 2030. >> climate change is be making a

drought like this worse. do you have a responsibility to address this problem? >> of course. we need to move faster. it's not the time to start wondering what to do. it's the time for action. time for action is now. >> reporter: because in shipping lanes like the panama canal, lanes like the panama canal, time is this is a hot flash. this is a hot flash. but this is a not flash. ♪ i got a good feeling ♪ there's big news for women going through menopause. veozah - a prescription treatment for moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms - the medical name for hot flashes and night sweats. with hormone-free veozah, you can have fewer hot flashes, and more not flashes. veozah is proven to reduce the number and severity of hot flashes, day and night. for some women, it can start working in as early as one week. don't use veozah if you have cirrhosis, severe kidney problems, kidney failure, or take cyp1a2 inhibitors. increased liver blood test values may occur.
