#Regram #RG @aljazeeraenglish: “This is climate chaos - what it actually looks like.” - Tim Gore, Oxfam’s climate policy leader.⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ Oxfam has found that people were three times more likely to be displaced by cyclones, floods or fires than by conflicts.⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ Here are some facts that show how it's mostly poor nations that are paying the price for climate chaos:⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ 1. In Cuba , nearly 5% of the population has been displaced annually by extreme weather | : Adalberto Roque, @afpphoto⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ 2. In Guatemala , a six-year drought has devastated crops, bringing poverty and hunger | : Marvin Recinos, @afpphoto⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ 3. In 2018, 3.6% of Somalia’s population were newly displaced by extreme weather events and 3.9% were newly displaced by conflict | : Feisal Omar, @reuters⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ 4. The Philippines tops the list of countries where people are most at risk of displacement as a result of conflict and extreme weather disasters | : Erik de Castro, @reuters⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ 5. In Pakistan , repeated droughts and cyclones between 1999 and 2012 resulted in the forced displacement of entire communities. | : Muhammed Muheisen, @apnews⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ 6. After the cyclone in Mozambique , displaced women often lacked information on their legal rights | : Zohra Bensemra, @reuters⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ 7. Small island developing states such as Tuvalu face the highest risk of internal displacement as a result of extreme weather events | : Dave Hunt-Pool, @gettyimages⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ 8. The vast majority – around 80% – of those displaced live in Asia. A single event, Cyclone Fani, triggered the displacement of nearly 3.5 million people in Bangladesh and India in May 2019 | : @apnews⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ 9. Storms - regular in Sri Lanka - are becoming more destructive as warmer waters contribute to higher maximum wind speeds and more rainfall | : Ishara S. Kodikara, @afpphoto⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ 10. Cyclone Idai, which hit Zimbabwe this year, mostly affected communities in rural areas with poor road infrastructure and housing. | : Zinyange Aunthony, @afpphoto⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ Read our article with more of Oxfam’s findings in the link in our bio.⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ #weather #climate
