The heading above is concerned,

I am fascinating in fighting the climate change, At Meatu District in Simiyu region  there is a great dry land  caused by impact of plantation of  Mihale trees and other natural trees, These trees are receive of the high concentration of water in the ground through osmosis and the loam soil become dry land,

 These trees and seeds were brought by the government organization called Hifadhi Ardhi  Shinyanga (HASHI) and established in 1989 and  planted on bare  areas, unfortunately, These Mihale and others natural trees are destructing the areas where are  very wet  and lost biodiversity. For that reason, Meatu at the present are very dry and the community are need of food caused by destructed of soil

Communities are leaving their settlement and go to other regions for look fertilizer soil for cultivations. 

That the researchers if they will verify the risky of mihale trees and other natural trees, so that community they can advice to leave it.

On top of that , I ask you and apply to you if you can connect researchers to bring  protometer for conduct experiment of impact of  Mihale trees and other natural trees which caused  dry land and harmful the loam soil  and the sources of rivers at Meatu areas .
