Option B is correct here.
Climatic changes pose severe risks to Sudan. Increase in temperature in recent years, lack of normal rainfall, dust storms and rising sea-levels, all these are affecting the country and its population.
Agriculture is the worst hit as there are no effective irrigation systems in place. Heat kills the crops most of the time. Most farmers have chosen to take up other occupation or are simply displaced.
They migrate to nearby cities and towns in search of employment, which often leads to tensions.
