In 2019, extreme weather like storms and floods displaced more than 13 million people across Asia and Africa. Heat and drought are threatening the food and water supply for millions of people, and rising sea levels are encroaching on coastal communities.
In recent years, more individuals have been forced to deal with extreme weather events linked to climate change, like the deadly heatwave that hit the western United States last summer.
Anthropogenic warming increased the likelihood of floods that swept through parts of Europe last year by up to nine times and made Australia's devastating fire seasons 30 percent more likely.
Despite the ‘irreversible’ impacts of a warming planet, scientists emphasize there is still time to act.
