Africa is a Role Model for Climate Catastrophes
Hervé Kempf, Le Monde (in French) | June 30, 2009
In the face of uncertainty as to when the impacts of climate change will begin to hit harder, developed societies must improve their ability to adapt to the crisis. ++ Poor southern countries are expected to be the first struck, yet northern countries might not cope as well as them. ++ "Despite material and technological advantages... developed countries are culturally constrained when it comes to the inevitable reduction of living standards." ++ In matters of adaptation, the north must learn from Africa.
