Climate change in Zimbabwe

Children walk down the road and pass a baobab tree, which can produce a nutritious fruit useful during drought as the tree is drought-resistant. According to the United Nations, nearly five million people will need assistance by next year as a result of the ongoing drought in southern Africa. Many families didn't harvest anything this year, which has led to economic and food security issues.
