"Super El Niño": Fresh drought threat looms over southern Angola
Le Monde reports that southern Africa, already destabilized by climate disruption over the past decade, could face a worsening situation due to an oceanographic phenomenon known as "Super El Niño."
According to an article published by Le Monde, southern Angola faces the threat of severe drought returning, as the southern African region has contended with repeated climate upheavals over the past decade.
According to the newspaper, an oceanographic phenomenon referred to as "Super El Niño" could worsen the situation in the coming months. This phenomenon is associated with a decrease in rainfall, likely to result in reduced agricultural yields in the region.
Le Monde emphasizes that southern Africa has been on the front lines of climate disruption for several years, a trend that could intensify with this new climate episode.
The potential consequences for food security among local populations, already tested by previous drought episodes, are highlighted as a major concern by the newspaper.
