Vast ravines swallowing whole neighborhoods around the world🚨:

Phenomenon is a result of gully erosion, one of the most aggressive forms of soil degradation caused by rain & wastewater. It's advancing at a worrying speed, destroying thousands of homes in Latin America & Africa. Experts: existing gullies are expanding more rapidly -fear new ones will open bc of #climatechange can make rainfall more intense. Deforestation plays a big part in this type of soil degradation. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/resources/idt-61d57e25-d458-4785-8a37-3ef119a504c7
