Your question needs to be more specific, as the topic is fairly large and complicated. You might want to check the latest IPCC library for comprehensive reports, updated evidence and latest models. See link below: https://www.ipcc.ch/library/

The Reveg Edge
ALGERIA in particular is already experiencing Global Warming effects, which if not controlled with cloud seeding and revegetation of your desert lands back to grasslands and wildflower fields, could be devastating to your population.
Right now, there is a lot of moisture created by Global warming, which has caused floods in Algeria a month ago, and twice in Libya this year.
The tipping point for this return to the pre-Roman rainfall amounts, when Algeria and Libya were the rain-fed grain fields for the empire, started in 1985, and has increased each year since then. See https://www.ecoseeds.com/cool2.html
We have been having four years worth of discussions about this topic at https://www.researchgate.net/post/How_we_can_reach_the_food_security_in_country_90_is_desert
To manage the moisture:
1.) Cloud seeding to direct it to areas needing rainfall.
2.) Revegetation of the barren deserts with native grasses and wildflowers, to maintain the annual increase in rainfall, which could go from 5 cm a year to one meter or more.
3.) The government provide free flood insurance to all home and business owners.
4.) Homes and infrastructure in low lying areas which could become flooded in the future, the government pays for moving to higher ground.
5.) Like the Saudis have done with their "Saudi Green Initiative", and set aside hundreds of millions of hectares as "Ecological Restoration Preserves" where grazing and farming is prohibited, in order to keep the rainfall falling on the rain-fed farm fields. There needs to be a 10:1 ratio between Preserve hectares and rain-fed farm fields, to be sustainable.
6.) The Saudis adopted my proposal in August 2010 to set aside 500 million hectares as Ecological Restoration Preserves that you can see at https://www.ecoseeds.com/cool.html with the idea that if each country was going to withstand Global Warming, it needed to strengthen and restore as much as its natural ecosystems as possible, so we do not end up being at the mercy of the Climate Change effects.
7.) Example when tomorrow Friday at 8 am, the big batch of moisture, which could be turned into rain clouds with cloud seeding, to help the rain fed farm fields of your country. This moisture is arriving several times a week in the early morning, and you can see how far south your rain-fed agriculture could be expended if 2-3 times a week, a cloud seeding program could be started like the UAE is doing. Check the YouTube videos for details.

Warum nicht mal im Winter über die globale Erwärmung reden: Der Klimawandel stellt nicht nur aus ökologischer Perspektive, sondern auch aus Sicht der Umweltmedizin ein Problem dar. Diese Zusammenhänge werden im öffentlichen Diskurs aktuell noch zu wenig betont, machen aber deutlich, dass eine nachhaltigere Klimapolitik dringend notwendig ist.
