CAN98-BURKINA-SAHEL

Two women from Burkina Faso sift sand 08 February a few kilometer from the capital Ouagadougou. The sand will be mixed with water and used to construct homes. The country's climate is dominated by the Sahara desert, and receives less than 600 ml. of water a year. Ecological activists had protested 16 January in Bobo-Dioulasso, 320 km (200 miles) from the capital, against plans to fell ancient trees for the African Nations Cup soccer competition, which has just gotten underway.
