Ethiopia: an Oromo [largest ethnic group in Ethiopia] boy walks with his donkeys laden with sacks of grain, teff, through the countryside and towards the grain bank on the outskirts of the city of Debre Zeit. In recent years the harvests are minimal, because large parts of the country are plagued by prolonged droughts, water shortages and therefore crop failures, food shortages and famine in the Horn of Africa. This is the result of climate change, El Nino, the global warming. In the background dry farmland, fields and mountains.
