How does the Sahara Desert effect Africa?

0

In the world today, 1/6 of the population is being affected by desertification that is forcing people to relocate to other regions and change their lifestyles. For those unable to move away from deserts, such as residents of the Sahara and Sahel regions of northern Africa, the effects can be devastating. Countries such as Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Sudan and many others are suffering the effects of long-term drought and devastating famine. In the world today, 5 million children are dying of hunger each year. Many of these are from the Sahara and Sahel regions of northern Africa. Continued desertification will only cause these numbers to grow.
