These Central American children must forage the mountainsides to find wood for their cooking fires.

In northern Africa it means the Sahara desert moves south several kilometers every year.
In mountainous areas it means stripping the slopes of vegetation which turns rains into landslides and floods.
Life is not easy in the Third World.
