El Niño Could Cause Billions in Losses and Displacement
Climate experts expect that the super El Niño phenomenon will cause significant financial losses in Africa, estimated between $10 billion and $20 billion, with a likelihood of massive migration waves due to the severe droughts and floods that typically accompany it. If Pacific Ocean temperatures continue to rise, the strength of this phenomenon could double, making it one of the most powerful climate patterns in history. This would threaten food and water security and put infrastructure at risk of severe damage, potentially leaving vulnerable countries unable to repay their debts. It is estimated that this event could reduce the GDP of the most affected countries by approximately 1-2%, equivalent to $10-20 billion across the continent.
