In my last video, I linked Zimbabwe’s devastating veld fires to climate change, but I also mentioned that this particular fire was started by someone clearing their field. So, what’s the real story?
In this follow-up, I clarify how human activity—like land clearing—can spark fires, but extended dry spells caused by climate change make them far more destructive and harder to control. Zimbabwe’s coffee-growing regions are facing increasing threats, and it’s time to understand the bigger picture.
🌍 How does climate change make veld fires worse?
🔥 Why are dry spells becoming longer and more intense?
🚜 What role do human activities play in these disasters?
Watch now to see firsthand how climate change and human actions are colliding in Zimbabwe’s coffee fields. Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more on small scale coffee farmer lives and livelihoods, and their relationship with the coffee value chain.
