Climate change impacts the poor
The article focused on the escalating climate change crisis and its direct impact on the poor, where increasing climate phenomena such as floods, droughts, and wildfires have intensified suffering among the most vulnerable groups. It is projected that climate change will push an additional 130 million people into extreme poverty by 2030. Reports indicate that eight out of ten people living in poverty are exposed to climate risks, especially in South Asia and Africa, and that there is a significant gap between international commitments to reduce emissions and the actual targets achieved. The article emphasizes the importance of implementing the decisions made at previous climate conferences, particularly COP 31 in Turkey. This requires the development of practical strategies for adapting to climate changes and minimizing their impacts on the poor, along with financial commitments from industrialized countries that pledged hundreds of billions of dollars to support developing nations.
