Abstract: | 'Living with drought' examines how rural communities in Niger and Kenya are responding to the severe changes wrought in their environment by climate change, poverty and population pressures. Soil and water conservation projects - such as stone terracing and tree windbreaks - have helped improve crop yields by as much as 25 percent in some regions. Projects like these, the film concludes, have helped make small but measurable advances in the fight against environmental degradation. |
