The Countries Most Vulnerable to Climate Change Will Experience Population Booms

Just like with Covid, the fact that the entire world is affected by climate change in some way doesn’t mean everyone will suffer equally. 9 out of 10 countries most vulnerable to climate change are in sub-Saharan Africa. And to make matters worse: the region’s total population is expected to double between today and 2050. That’s hundreds of millions of people who contributed little to nothing to climate change — but will be hit hardest by it. Deserves more attention.
