Specifically in Africa, many people suffer from living conditions that are becoming increasingly inhospitable. Less and less rain is causing the soil to dry out and, in some areas, become saline. Livestock is dying of thirst, agricultural use of large regions becomes impossible, and hunger, lack of work, and poverty drive people to flee.

In Europe, the climate catastrophe is often experienced as severe storms that cause enormous damage. The amounts of water that are too much for us are missing in Africa, as global warming causes additional evaporation of water, and the air thus absorbs more water, which is missing elsewhere.
