Update on: Climate, overfishing, pollution... In Lake Chad, the nets are being emptied

FRANCE 24 — French reports on an evolution concerning "An update on: Climate, overfishing, pollution... In Lake Chad, the nets are emptying", without the available excerpt allowing the story to be extended beyond the facts cited.

The available report indicates that the inhabitants of Lake Chad province are suffering the full force of the effects of climate change. The report also specifies that the region and the life that develops there have historically taken shape around this immense body of water. Fishing but also agriculture, which are the pillars of the communities in the area, are largely handicapped by the irregularities of the climate. Consequences: lack of fish, destroyed agricultural land, increase in the cost of living.
