The Problem About the Water Crises in Burundi For the water crises we should conserve water. Why we should conserve water is that the biodiversity of people overgrazing in Africa and the desertification. There’s a lot of waste so why not we make a waste management to dispose the waste that African people potable every day. Soil erosion is another problem, and deforestation. Soil erosion and deforestation can be another problem, because when soil erodes land it can erode water continuously and groundwater. Deforestation, the process of cutting trees can affect the African’s air supply. How deforestation can affect African’s air supply is that if there’s no trees the African civilization is going to be wiped out. The solution is that we should plant trees in Africa, and get a water filter so Africans can have clean water.
