How the West Manufactured Africa's Food Crisis on Purpose | 22 July 2021
How the West Manufactured Africa's Food Crisis on Purpose | 22 July 2021 Ambakisye-Okang Dukuzumurenyi 30 Views • 5 years ago

Hunger is still the biggest killer in #Africa and it has a lot to do with colonialism. redfish worked with filmmakers in #Senega #Nigeria #Kenya #Zimbabwe to tell local stories of food and hunger, but also the growing resistance to the continued influence of former colonial powers, their corporations and institutions. Economic sanctions from the Global North, debt and loans from the IMF, aid dependency, and enforced capitalism have all played a central role in Africa's manufactured food crisis.

Pumped Dry: The Global Crisis of Vanishing Groundwater | USA TODAY
Pumped Dry: The Global Crisis of Vanishing Groundwater | USA TODAY Ambakisye-Okang Dukuzumurenyi 33 Views • 5 years ago

In places around the world, supplies of groundwater are rapidly vanishing. As aquifers decline and wells begin to go dry, people are being forced to confront a growing crisis.

Much of the planet relies on groundwater. And in places around the world – from the United States to Asia, the Middle East, Africa and Latin America – so much water is pumped from the ground that aquifers are being rapidly depleted and wells are going dry.

Groundwater is disappearing beneath cornfields in Kansas, rice paddies in India, asparagus farms in Peru and orange groves in Morocco. As these critical water reserves are pumped beyond their limits, the threats are mounting for people who depend on aquifers to supply agriculture, sustain economies and provide drinking water. In some areas, fields have already turned to dust and farmers are struggling.

Climate change is projected to increase the stresses on water supplies, and heated disputes are erupting in places where those with deep wells can keep pumping and leave others with dry wells. Even as satellite measurements have revealed the problem’s severity on a global scale, many regions have failed to adequately address the problem. Aquifers largely remain unmanaged and unregulated, and water that seeped underground over tens of thousands of years is being gradually used up.

In this documentary, USA TODAY and The Desert Sun investigate the consequences of this emerging crisis in several of the world’s hotspots of groundwater depletion. These are stories about people on four continents confronting questions of how to safeguard their aquifers for the future – and in some cases, how to cope as the water runs out.
