The Climate Chronicles – Your Lens on a Changing Planet
We are a team of curious minds, storytellers, and climate-conscious young people committed to making sense of the world’s most pressing issue: climate change.
At The Climate Chronicles, we break down how the climate crisis is showing up in everyday life—from disrupted education and rising food prices to extreme weather and displacement. Our goal is to explore these challenges through real stories, accessible writing, and bold conversations that invite action.
We don’t have all the answers, but we believe in the power of knowledge, community, and collective action. Whether you’re just learning about climate change or have been engaging with it for years, you’ll find a space here to grow, reflect, and make your voice heard.
Because the climate crisis isn’t just a scientific issue—it’s a human one.
And every story counts.

Climate Change and Agriculture in The Gambia

 By: NYIMA SONKO Climate Change and Agriculture: Sowing Solutions for a Warming World.   In The Gambia, climate change is directly impacting agricultural production by disrupting rainfall patterns, increasing soil salinity, and altering pest dynamics. As these environmental shifts threaten food security, Gambian farmers are finding ways to adapt in order to maintain crop yields and sustain their livelihoods. Agriculture in The Gambia relies heavily on rain-fed systems, with a short rainy season that is becoming increasingly unpredictable. Changes in the timing and intensity of rainfall are making it difficult for farmers to determine when to plant and harvest staple crops such as millet, sorghum, maize, rice, and groundnuts. Erratic rains can lead to flooding, washing away seeds or young seedlings, while prolonged dry spells cause soil moisture stress and degradation. Soil salinization is also becoming a major concern, especially in lowland rice-growing areas. Reduced r...

From Classrooms to Communities: Gambian Schools Tackling Climate Change Together

  School in the Age of Climate Chaos By: Victoria Chizoba Okwuanalu A 2024 World Bank report reveals a startling reality: students in low-income countries, including those in sub-Saharan Africa, lose an average of 18 school days each year due to extreme weather events. This growing crisis is a warning sign that climate change is quietly but drastically disrupting education across vulnerable nations. In The Gambia, this challenge hits home. The Gambia’s Education System Under Threat Fig 1: Catastrophic Storm in Central River Region had a hit on  Dobang Kunda Lower Basic School. Source https://www.gambiarising.org/crr-storm-fund.html For Gambian children, climate change is not an abstract future problem; it is a daily obstacle. Floods, searing heat waves, and violent storms have become regular disruptors of school attendance and learning. These extreme weather events cause school closures, destroy infrastructure, and create unsafe conditions that prevent children f...

A Growing Disaster Threat for The Gambia

 By: ROHEY NGUM A Growing Disaster Threat for The Gambia Poor environmental keeping can contribute to climate change, pollution, and poor land use intensify global warming and increase disaster risks."  The Gambia is facing escalating threats from climate change, as rising sea levels and extreme weather events increase the risk of disasters nationwide. The frequency and intensity of these disasters have grown significantly, with the Banjul flood serving as a stark example of the devastating consequences. Climate-related challenges such as rising sea levels, erratic rainfall, and extreme weather have heightened the country’s vulnerability to flooding, drought, and coastal erosion. These impacts not only endanger lives and livelihoods but also jeopardize the nation’s development efforts.
