Global Warming – Africa

Climate situation is critical in Africa where it clearly appears that the arid areas of Africa are becoming even drier and coastal water level is increased and therefore creates a heightened risk of flooding, which altogether cause problems for agriculture and population. If this problem continues to get worse not only the average life span but also the fight against poverty whitch is said to have halved during the year 2015^th. For years the world has tried to help Africa with the economy in an attempt to create a kind of global equality, and where today there is lot of aid organizations such as UNICEF and a lot of others, and then we will have other problems which create an extremely difficult situation for both organizations and Africa.

One might think that despite all the problems of diseases and viruses that Africa has been affected by can be enough, Africa is, after all, a country which is largely innocent of global warming. It is said today that Africa is the continent that suffers most from global warming, it is because Africa has the poorest countries in the world which makes it difficult for countries to work against global catastrophes, unlike Europe, which in all cases, good economy and opportunities to support their country at almost 100%, not only that but also adapt to problems that arise. If we for example were to pretend that there would be a giant wave of water in Europe  we could take shelter in our homes because we have a good enought economy to use sustainable materials for buildings, on the other hand, if you would look at Africa’s most building structures you would see that they would not keep so well and therefore creating a higher amount of death counts during a natural disaster. And this is just one of the cases where economy might kick in.

What can the world do about this? Well the question has always been a major problem and say there’s not much Africa can do about it, because they neither cause the global warming effect nor have the economy enough to help other countries in order to reduce the problem, so it is up to other countries trying to help create a good environment for the whole world, which will not only help them but also life span for everything and everyone in the world and a much safer environment. Another problem to be solved is the distribution of the economy so that not only money sent to Africa and disappears on unnecessary things. These measures would then be an attempt to increase democracy in Africa, people also have a large application, and it is after all the people affected. Increased democracy will lead to better economics of distribution, city and state even more global cooperation, which hopefully will create a better environment.
