A farmer in a rural community affected by drought may be more likely to migrate than someone in a city whose job does not depend on agriculture

Mahamat Ali, of SOS Sahel, inspects a barrier of palm fronds designed to secure sand dunes that threaten to swamp the oasis of Nokou in Kanem province
[8/8] Les oasis du Sahel sont un laboratoire des limites planétaires. Ils montrent comment sécheresse, vents, pression démographique et instabilité économique recomposent l’habitabilité. Elles éclairent les défis des marges arides à l’ère de l’Anthropocène.

[4/8] L’étude montre des dynamiques d’adaptation locales. SOS Sahel a installé en 2023 des pompes solaires, formé 100 agriculteurs et stabilisé les dunes par des palissades de palmes. Ces dispositifs illustrent l’ingénierie low-tech adaptée aux milieux arides. #geography #climatevulnerability #Sahel
[1/8] Julie Bourdin et Tommy Trenchard témoignent de la vulnérabilité extrême des oasis du Kanem au Tchad. Leur article analyse comment l’aridification accélérée et l’ensablement menacent ces socio-écosystèmes essentiels aux mobilités et à l’agriculture. #geography #climatevulnerability #Sahel

3/ 📍Southeast Asia has the highest estimated heat-related mortality burden linked to deforestation, but tropical Africa and Latin America are also heavily affected.
In the DRC alone, 42 million people are exposed to deforestation-induced warming.

9/14 These are the most devastating floods since 2022, when record monsoon rains killed 1,700 people and submerged a third of the country.
Pakistan contributes less than 1% of global emissions but is among the most vulnerable to climate change.

[8/8] Ce récit intime, entre journalisme et mémoire migrante, illustre comment le changement climatique creuse les inégalités et fragilise les plus vulnérables. Loin d’un luxe, l’écologie devient ici une question de survie collective. #geography #climatevulnerability #Togo
[7/8] Ce reportage fait entendre une voix trop souvent ignorée : celle de ceux qui vivent le changement climatique mais n’ont pas les moyens de s’en protéger. Germaine le résume : "Il faut en parler, sinon rien ne bougera." #geography #climatevulnerability #Togo
[6/8] Le regard de Germaine, entre attachement affectif et lucidité critique, permet d'incarner les effets du climat. En tant que témoin de terrain, elle note que les sécheresses sont plus longues et les pluies plus violentes qu'autrefois. #geography #climatevulnerability #Togo
[5/8] 3% : c’est la part des émissions mondiales de gaz à effet de serre imputable à l’Afrique. Pourtant, ses pays sont en première ligne. À chaque catastrophe, le Togo perd du PIB. L’aide climatique internationale, elle, recule. #geography #climatevulnerability #Togo
[4/8] Inondations, érosion côtière, sécheresses, chaleur extrême : le Togo cumule les risques. À Bè, quartier de Lomé, des flaques géantes bloquent encore les routes une semaine après la pluie. Le dérèglement climatique est devenu un quotidien. #geography #climatevulnerability #Togo
[3/8] Le Togo est l’un des 46 pays "les moins avancés". 58,8% de pauvreté rurale, 40% d’urbains en bidonville. L’ONU le classe 163e sur 193 à l’IDH. Ces fragilités amplifient les effets du changement climatique sur les sociétés locales. #geography #climatevulnerability #Togo
[2/8] Germaine décrit une capitale littéralement "noyée": à son arrivée en 2017, seuls les toits de certaines maisons de Lomé émergeaient. Un choc personnel révélateur d’une aggravation climatique marquée dans les zones côtières. #geography #climatevulnerability #Togo
[1/8] Marine Lamoureux emmène sa nounou Germaine Kossiwa Tiem au Togo, son pays natal, pour documenter les effets concrets du dérèglement climatique. Ensemble, elles interrogent l’invisibilisation du désastre écologique en Afrique de l’Ouest. #geography #climatevulnerability #Togo

[2/6] Les températures atteignent 35°C en avril mais les maisons en béton, souvent sans fenêtres ni ventilation, emmagasinent la chaleur. Les ventilateurs brassent de l’air chaud, les coupures de courant sont fréquentes, et l’eau n’est disponible qu’un jour sur deux. #geography #ClimateVulnerability
