Identify and describe two environmental challenges facing Africa. Which challenge do you think needs the most immediate
attention? Why?

Unfavourable climate

Explanation:

Africa mainly in the Northern parts face a problem of unfavourable climate is too much sunshine that leads to drought and starvation

Farming methods contribute to this problem. Logging, tourism and hunting are also causes of the reduction of rainforests in Africa. Population growth often results in more land being cleared to accommodate farming and food production. Desertification is a second major concern, particularly in the Sahel region. Drought, climate change, and leaching have contributed to the spread of this problem. Severe droughts have plagued the Sahel and have destroyed many farms. This environmental problem has led to famines that have become a crisis across the continent. Pollution is a major problem in Africa’s cities, as in other cities worldwide. Industrial pollution and rapid growth have both contributed to this issue. A lack of regulations and increasing demand have both contributed to greater struggles to find clean water sources. Animal endangerment is another environmental challenge. The loss of animal habitats has made survival difficult for many species. Poaching and illegal hunting have also contributed to the endangerment of a number of species.
