Malthusian limits must be met at some point in Africa.
Looming desertification could spawn millions of environmental refugees
Africa may be able to feed only 25% of its population by 2025

December 14, 2006Africa may be able to feed just 25% of its population by 2025 if soil degradation on the continent continues at its current pace, according to a water expert presenting at an upcoming United Nations University (UNU) conference on desertification in Algiers, Algeria.
Karl Harmsen, Director of UNU's Ghana-based Institute for Natural Resources in Africa, says that should soil conditions continue to decline in Africa, nearly 75% of the continent could come to rely on some sort of food aid by 2025.
Harmsen's comments come as some 200 delegates from 25 countries prepare to convene at the December 17-19 meeting in Algiers to discuss the causes and consequences of desertification, a threat that puts an estimated 2 billion people at risk of becoming "environmental refugees". The U.N. warns that climate change could worsen the situation by depriving populations living in arid regions of adequate water supplies. Christian Aid has estimated that an average global temperature increase exceeding 3ºC could cause 182 million deaths in Africa this century and leave 750 million additional hungry people in Africa and Asiahttp://news.mongabay.com/2006/1214-unu.html"There is an overwhelming expectation that the number of people on the move due to environmental reasons will grow," Bogardi said. "We are at the beginning of an unavoidably long process. Yet, the aim must be clear: to create recognition in order to assist a forcefully emerging new category of migrants."
Bogardi explains that there are currently no mechanisms for recognizing environmental refugees, who already outnumber people categorized as political refugees. He proposes three categories of environmental refugees: environmentally-motivated migrants, environmentally-forced migrants, and environmental refugees (potentially including disaster refugees); depending on whether the environmentally-motivated migrant has a choice to leave and the swiftness of taking action ("fleeing" rather than "migrating").

This is really quite a dire situation if it all may come true. Its amazing that despite the works of natural selection and social crisises wiping out large parts of their populations, they are able to bounce back like this. I bet a lot of these economic advancements have to do with Western factions and corruption.
A lot of Africans have come over to the Western world to get educated, and I have known some. It seems when they get back to their country they use Western methods to cheat and scam the system. I think Nigeria has an infamous history for having many fradulent and sham enterprises harbored within it.
This is because these people want to find anyone to steal the money flow from powerful Western nations, who are relatively rich. They see everything in the vast scheme as stolen from them, and they will use any power or money they get to try to suffocate more powerful Western nations.
Their primitive ways of thinking and applying things will be their downfall, and our main concern should be with all the immigrants that will be moving out of Africa. 1 Billion people is enough in Africa, but having 3 Billion might create some sort of social and environmental apocalypse, which will send a wave of these people to infest Western nations.
The problem is not with Africa itself, but the infestation of large and copious amounts of them into powerful Western nations, which could and is causing a degeneration and decay from within.
