À propos de ce contenu audio
Chris and Charlie discuss the global scandal of debt and structural adjustments, how it came to Cameroon and contributed to poverty, underdevelopment, and desertification. Then, they compare IMF structural adjustments to a proven anti-desertification model: how the American New Deal beat the Dust Bowl. To end, they discuss the dire situation of rural Cameroonians, and why desertification can’t be beat without addressing poverty. Remember: land degradation is responsible for a quarter of humanity’s greenhouse gas emissions. We can’t stop catastrophic climate change without fixing the Sahelian desertification crisis.
