YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

For the past three decades, drought and floods have plagued rural Afghanistan. As a result, farmers have struggled to maintain their crops and livestock, and many people have been left hungry. The Taliban has been exploiting those issues and capitalizing on distrust in the government to recruit members to their ranks. CBS News climate reporter Cara Korte joined CBSN's Lana Zak to discuss.
