Lack of early warning systems leaves millions at risk
About this episode
Half of humanity is at risk of the devastating effects of climate breakdown. This disruption in nature, caused mainly by human actions, threatens the planet’s welfare, particularly in poor and developing countries, many of which are in Africa.
In the second episode of Season Three, Africa Science Focus talks to a strawberry farmer in Kenya and the Meteorological Department in Kenya to determine the extent of damage caused by an overheated climate. And why effective adaptation systems must be employed sooner rather than later.
Africa Science Focus, with Halima Athumani.
