Egypt Faces Devastating Food Shortages as Climate Change Ravages Agriculture
Climate change will harm Egypt's agriculture by 2050, reducing crop yields by over 10%. Higher temperatures and water stress will hurt food crops like maize, sugar crops, and fruits. Egypt, which relies on food imports, faces challenges not just at home but also from climate impacts in other countries. The country will struggle to produce food and import it due to rising food prices. To cope, Egypt must invest in adapting its agriculture to climate change. It's crucial for countries worldwide to work together to cut greenhouse gas emissions and lessen the severe impact on Egypt's food security and economy.
