Although Africa has contributed relatively little to the planet’s greenhouse gas emissions, the continent has suffered some of the world’s heaviest impacts of climate change, from famine to flooding.
Yet from its coral reefs to its highest peaks, the reverberations of human-caused global warming will only get worse, according to a new United Nations report
The U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change predicted Monday that Saharan flooding, heat and drought will increase, Africa’s rich array of wildlife and plants will decline and glaciers on its most iconic mountains will disappear in coming decades.
On a continent already grappling with high poverty levels and food insecurity, the panel warned that fishermen and farmers will feel the pain of future climate change on their lives and livelihoods.
Climate change has a major social injustice component, with the poor hit harder by pollution from the rich, said former Ireland President Mary Robinson, now with The Elders, a Nelson Mandela- founded group of senior statesmen. “All of the injustices are captured by looking at the region of Africa.”

Africa is warm? Who knew? Where is the UN taking their readings, the Sahara desert?
Now they back to calling “Global Warming” again?
Yes, so why waste your precious time republishing their lies?
Have we changed back to Warming again? (slap) OW!
Africa is warm? Well, ask them what their plan is to mitigate the problem.
Yes, the globe will warm by 1.5 degC by 2100!!! Shocking!!!
So the 0.15 degree warming has already happened. We can measure to hundredths of a degree and compare it to 1000 year history by studying TREE RINGS.
Tree Rings are accurate to thousandths of a degree!! (hint: that’s sarcasm)
(basic scientific principle- your measurement cannot be any more accurate than your measuring device)
The UN functionaries would look better swimming in the nearby River, in a blizzard.
The only thing that compares to the stupidity of falling for this scam is the scam that is "civil rights." And both causes have one thing in common, viz. if they haven't fixed it by now, it isn't going to be "fixed." Time to abandon both scams and let the chips fall where they may.
What a load of total, unadulterated nonsense and propaganda. .
With plenty of hungry crocodiles in that river.
Just had the coldest winter in 30 plus years in Maine. The Globul warming cure may wipe out mankind.
“Climate change has a major social injustice component”
That is the only component it has.
I was in Africa 40 years ago. Nothing has changed.
An icy East River would be a genuine health hazard for innocent crocodiles.
Just about every part of Africa is warm. Some parts can get a bit chilly at certain times of the year. Some parts of Africa are very wet,some are very dry and some fluctuate between wet and dry.
Climate change has a major social injustice component,
Man made climate change is a hoax! The hoax has two purposes, one to make those that are committing the hoax rich, and two to control people.

The earth’s climate changes, that is a fact. The lie is that man has anything to do with it.
Warm air is wetter. Humidity goes down as the air cools, and up as it rises.
A warmer Earth is a wetter Earth. More plants, more animals. If the monsoons raise up into the Sahara, it will become flush with life.
I’m still waiting for their predictions of the last 50 years to come true.
