Climate change threatens the population of Gou?timba, RCI
Michel Tia
The fall of Laurent Gbagbo as a result of the post-electoral crisis would alert the public authorities in C?te d'Ivoire to the conflicting consequences of the effects of global warming on agriculture in general. The immediate cessation of annual rainfall has prompted rural populations who depend on agriculture to look for the causes and those responsible. Using the theory of assigning responsibility and blame, it can be argued that in the local village of Gou?timba in the mountainous west of C?te d'Ivoire, the Christian minority is responsible for the lack of rainfall. Most of these accusers, who are animists and Muslims, claim that the lack of rain is due to the desecration of sacred places by Catholic Christians, who until now have had no fixed place to worship the Lord. The universality of the religious factor should prevent potential conflict.
