People make weather worse

On February 17, world scientists published two scientific studies in Nature, which for the first time highlighted evidence that human activity caused extreme weather changes. more globally for decades.

These two studies are based on data collected from 1951 to date in Europe, Asia and North America. Increased greenhouse gas emissions are directly linked to climate change and its impact on terrible weather disasters for people and the environment.

The average rainfall in the heaviest rainfall in 24 hours continuously increases in intensity in the second half of the 20th century, corresponding to the harsh sea change of climate models, in which imprints on your activity People who come to these climate models are undeniable.

Studies on scientific evidence suggest that the historic flood in the UK in 2000 was directly related to the increase in greenhouse gas emissions.

Myles Allen, a scientist at Oxford University, stressed that actual simulation experiments show that the consequences of rising emissions also double the risk of global weather disasters compared to The current. Global warming due to greenhouse gas emissions has become a clear threat to the stability and security of countries across the globe.

Ms Christiana Figueres, Secretary of the Executive Committee of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, warned that this instability impacted from the increasing water scarcity, declining agricultural crop productivity and terrible damage from increasing weather disasters on frequency and intensity across the globe. This impact has and will lead to massive international migration and regional conflicts.

The United Nations predicts hundreds of millions of Africans will stand in front of persistent drought and food insecurity in the decade. In 2008, at least 20 million people around the world lost their homes due to natural disasters. In the next 40 years, the number of people displaced by climate change will increase from 200 million to 1 billion people.
