"Environmental problems: Salinization of the Nile Delta. The ecology in and around the Nile changed a lot since the construction of the Aswan High Dam. The vegetation around the lake changed as a result of the change in water quality. In the Nile River itself, a lot of species of fish have disappeared, and the species that survived decreased in number"

Due to heavy human extraction and high evaporation, the Nile river basin and its inhabitants are especially sensitive to climate change. Current water withdrawal for irrigation is so high, that despite its size, in dry periods, the river does not reach the sea. The Nile basin traverses the largest number of countries of any basin in Africa; changes in the timing and availability of water under climate change may lead to tension, insecurity and management problems.
