Climate change is causing an increase in desertificaton
Climate change has caused an increase in desertification. The consequence for countries such as Mauritania is a significant drop in the agricultural production of some regions, leaving farmers struggling to grow enough food to eat or sell. The region of Guidimakha used to have significant rainfall, up to 1600mm in the 1990s, now rainfall barely reaches 400mm.
Politicians and experts met last week in Madrid to discuss ways to tackle drought and the increasing spread of deserts across the globe.
