Change In Sudan

In the past, Sudan has struggled with its economy due to the conflict within the country. However, after oil prices started to rise, Sudan produced and exported enough oil to bring their economy back up to a stable position. As of July 2016, 36,729,501 people lived in Sudan. Annually, Sudan produces 12 billion kWh of electricity (as of 2014, 95th in the world,) and consumes 9.9 billion kWh (93rd in the world.) Regarding Sudan’s international relationships, the surrounding states of Chad, Egypt, Ethiopia, Israel, the Central African Republic, and South Sudan have provided shelter for more than 600,000 Sudanese refugees. Sudan has a very dry, warm climate, and much of the northern part is desert and flat plains. Some parts of Sudan have rain and floods from the months of April to November. Sudan has a presidential republic government. (cia.gov.)

Greenhouse gas emissions are the cause of climate
In many places, climate change is a controversial issue between government officials. Many social issues are being caused by climate change. With the severe droughts and powerful floods, there are less and less places to grow agriculture. Plus, with water becoming a rising problem, there will eventually be less water to drink, and, combined with agriculture, less food to eat as well. This can cause famine. Economically based, jobs based on agriculture, such as farming, will start to diminish. Many people will lose their jobs. (Huffingtonpost.com)

Sudan has laws for protecting the environment against climate change. With Sudan’s already dry climate, its droughts are becoming harsher and consistent. During their rainy season, floods are becoming either stronger or having none at all. Sudan is not a leading contributor to greenhouse gases, nor anywhere near it. As such, many of the leading contributors of emissions, such as the United States and China, are impacting Sudan’s climate more than Sudan itself
