Famine killing 23 mil. in Africa
Famine and desertification
Desertification
Desertification is an environmental issue and it is when the soil has lost its richness and has turned into desert. This causes people to lose crops and can't feed themselves. Also they can't eat animals because they migrate to a place where the soil is fertile. Since people can't eat this causes famine and it kills more than 20 million people in Africa.
This is desertification . The land is slowly starting to look more and more like a desert

Children are dying every 10 seconds because there families don't have enough money to buy food.
