The primary negative effect of climate change as concerns Sahelian Africans is DESERTIFICATION. The Sahel region is known for being semi-arid, but relatively conducive to low-scale farming. However, as the temperature in the Sahara Desert rises, compounded by unsustainable levels of farming, the topsoil in the northern parts of the Sahel is eroding and drying out. As a result, the desert is expanding and making it impossible for people to maintain their agricultural economies with infertile soil. In some cases entire towns and villages have been vacated since the people can no longer survive there.

How do the Cuban revolution change Cuba economically socially and politically?

The Cuban Revolution, which culminated in 1959, significantly transformed Cuba economically, socially, and politically. Economically, it led to the nationalization of industries and land redistribution, shifting from a capitalist economy heavily dependent on sugar exports to a state-controlled model. Socially, it aimed to eliminate class differences, resulting in improved access to education and healthcare, but also led to repression of dissent. Politically, the revolution established a one-party socialist state under Fidel Castro, aligning Cuba with the Soviet Union and fostering a culture of political repression and control.
