Changing weather patterns in SA

It is no longer a secret that weather patterns all over the world has changed drastically over the past 3 - 5 years and more people are starting to ask questions rather than accepting the changes.

These are not just mere climate changes, but changes that has great influence in our daily lives and in the towns and cities that we call home. South Africa has experienced shifting rain patterns causing drought in some areas and floods in other, and now we are starting to ask ourselves whether these changes are permanent or just the start of an unstable cycle…

The climate and rain pattern changes in South Africa is causing problems like negative consequences in food security, loss of land and pest outbreaks(to name just a few). In many areas people now have less access to fresh foods, forcing them to buy food which affects their financial and health situation. Outbreaks of pets such as the desert locust are induced by weather changes weakening food systems even more.

The facts are there, GREAT weather patterns and global warming IS taking place and these patterns are not in our human hands to control, improve or change.

Climate sciences prove that within a couple of years a temperature rise of up to 2ºC above pre-industrial levels will be difficult to avoid. Such a temperature increase will pose serious security risks that would increase if warming continues.

All these facts about the world we live in just cause one to wonder what will happen next, where will it end and what will happen to us?
