I read this was due to the following. Africa's lake Chad,once a landmark for astronauts circling the earth is now difficult for them to locate. Surrounded by (Cameroon,) Chad,Niger ad Nigeria...., the lake has shrunk by 95 per cent since the 1960s. The soaring demand for irrigation water in the area is draining dry the rivers and streams the lake depends on for its exisence. As a result,lake Chad may soon disappear entirely,it's wherabouts a mystery to future generations. This and other water supplies are dissapearing at a rapid rate.
