When the Nile Dries Up it Might Take Africa's Economy Along With It

[@BigMacProDaddy]

The most profound thing I learned from this documentary is that lake bottom core samples "prove" lake Victoria was a grassland 16,000 years ago.

I'm looking forward to the sahara Desert reverting to verdant jungle.(as it was before global cooling happened).

[@tulukuma2735]

Yes u agreed that one day it will dry up if doesn't produce hydropower and stop cutting wood for cooking and for lighting..that is the reason Sudan and Egypt should support even pay for Ethiopia to build more dam to provide more electricity even pay to plant tree inside Ethiopia

those trumpet flower trees are absolutely beautiful and I can't imagine how good it smells with that many flowers always in bloom.

In Asia, China will dam the waters from Tibet- In Europe- well the Alps are getting less ice.

I don't necessarily think all the countries in Africa would suffer economically. Disastrous yes, especially for the countries that benefit from it but not all of Africa.

[@allgoo1964]

J. Midnite says: "I don't necessarily think all the countries in Africa would suffer economically....." == It doesn't matter which part of Africa suffers. Never heard of refugees? They'll eventually find Europe, or in the future, any other countries in the world which hasn't suffered. And you know what? People in those countries being destination for the refugees today will eventually suffer and start moving as their own refugees until they'll find nowhere else to go on the earth as the climate change progresses. You've never thought about what awaits at the end of the climate change, have you? You'll be eating human flesh just to survive a few more days because that'll be only available food you can find.

[@OTTO149x]

@@allgoo1964 CO2 promotes plant growth. How do you get that there will be less food as a result of increased CO2 and higher average temperature, which also promotes plant growth? Are you sure you've really thought this through? Logic dictates that a warming climate with a higher CO2 count is likely to produce more food not less...

[@allgoo1964]

"More Floods and More Droughts: Climate Change Delivers Both" www.nytimes.com/2018/12/12/climate/climate-change-floods-droughts.html There's no flood and hurricane in the green house, but in the nature there are. How stupid your argument is.

[@MrArthurGiles]

Much talk about Global Warming, it's great to find that the fault is not of your own doing, yes?BUT, too little is said of over-population needing more water for everyday use and the bigger African problem of over-grazing which turns the fertile land into desert.

[@devastatn]

It's been two years. Hopefully with the artic melting so fast the Nile is still with us. Hopefully, lol

[@bobhennis3585]

i wish we had a video camera set up with a 5 million yr battery. it would show ice ages , flood, droughts and every season in between, proving once and for all reguardless of man and cars our earth continues to change and always will. millions of the sky is falling crowd would have to get real jobs tho.

Is it because we suffer no natural disasters that other nations want to force problems n catastrophies on us???

Whats with the 2009 dates on a lot of this stuff?

[@ishanbansal3560]

Maybe a massive movement for climate

[@levarmitchell3962]

Downstream countries would suffer ( cough cough Egypt) if the Nile dries up, but upstream countries wouldn't be harmed. In any case, climate change or not, as long as these countries develop modern infrastructure and housing and energy resources like we have in developed countries, then the affects of a drying river can be mitigated. There's been numerous droughts in Southwestern United States but no one starved.

[@yarpen26]

But those countries ''won't'' develop any of those things. They never have and there is no indication they ever will.

[@enlightedenlightment1065]

Yarpen26 At least Ethiopia is by constructing a massive dam on the Blue Nile. Uganda may soon follow.

[@hoggarththewisesmeagol8362]

[@StinkyBlack1]

I remember reading in my textbooks 30 years ago about how the niles levels change dramatically and often. They used the area that was previously covered to grow crops etc. this doc is environmental bs.

BUILD DAMS OR MINIDAMS AT LEAST IN THE RIVER . MAKING LAKES IN THE RIVERS ARE ALSO VERY EFFECTIVE.

He never heard of climate change?, the people most affected by this, don't even know what's happening

[@beezkneezone]

I like the phrase climate change, No global warming. That implies I’m at fault. The earth The sun and indeed all our solar system goes thru changes with or without us. As long as the elite and privileged drive big trucks , live in big homes and fly abroad . Make a great living . Well I’m doing the same. When the people that accuse me of environmental damage suffer and sacrifice , When they show me the way thru there suffering, Then I’ll suffer. Not until then, If not . Then it looks to be a control mechanism to me. I hope everyone is happy

[@richert8]

In 1950 Africa had 229 million, now it's 1.02 BILLION and that number is totally unsustainable and growing. Its not climate change that will take Africa down but Africans themselves.

[@amanrusom9498]

So is Europe. It's the most dense apart from some parts of Asia. It only survives as it utilizes the carbon fuel well. Remember famine was common pre industrial in Europe so when oil runs out. If used properly sudan can feed half of Africa, not exaggeration. Overpopulation is not a problem. It's old farming techniques and lack of industrialisation so excess population was no income as farming has a optimum human labour.

[@mishap00]

And I suppose land degradation, deforestation, etc. has nothing to do with it.

[@cujoemblakka1041]

Many African countries has ocean access, can use desalination, no civilisation can survive without clean potable water. A reliable source of water for farming, household use, industrial, and gravitational dams, for energy. We as human beings have the technologies and abilities to change and control or adjust to situational or environmental change. Let use or brains. Famines and mass starvation of ancient times avoidable because of technological development, if applied. We must take measures to regreen the deserts, draw fresh water from the oceans to do our business. The ocean will aways return to take back its place, If the climate changes, just roll with it, make desalination plants to supply water and green energy, life goes on, we are living in a time of many solutions. Everything in nature is cyclical, notice the changes and adjust accordingly, those that are unable to change suffer.

[@libanwarsame5428]

When people fail to appreciate God's gift to humanity and grow indulging in lustful behaviors. Then the Almighty punishes them by causing these resources to shrink, because they were ungrateful and corrupt. Indeed, God has called on man to appreciate the value of this essential source of life in the following verses from the Holy Qur'an: == “Have you seen the water which you drink? Was it you who sent it down from the rain cloud, or did We send it? Were it Our will, We could have made it bitter; why then do you not give thanks?” (Quran 56:68-70) “Say: Have you considered, if your water were one morning to have seeped away, who then could bring you clear-flowing water?” (Quran 67:30). === Thus, it's imperative to make use of the water resources that God gave us sparingly, and stop polluting and/or squabbling over its ownership.

Revelation 16:12. "And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared." The NIO is at hand with the "kings" of the earth preparing false peace and safety to then usher in the third temple. Do not fall for their games which aim to enslave you through their peace and safety and claim you to be slaves by red shield "noiZ-sits" for even the luke warm shall be branded by their mark and not the seal of God for the true who seek the wilderness will receive the seal of God.
