Climate change can have drastic effects on certain countries. For example: It can cause lower levels of annual rainfall which causes lower crop yields across the country. Because of this it can make crop prices high or even push the country into food insecurity. Another effect of climate change has is that more natural disasters can occur. The main increase will be in hurricanes and flooding because of hotter seas and increased sea levels. Not only can this cause economic damage but also cause loss of life and high insurance rates in coastal areas. But this can also apply to more in-land areas such as ones with expansive forest areas through forest fires. Finally, climate change can cause health impacts such as sunstroke and death among the population. It dosent just effect humans but also species as they may become extinct due to hot temperatures. An example of this is the potential extinction of the American Pika
Climate change affects every country and can have devastating effects on communities and individuals. According to the World Health Organization, as of the year 2030, climate change is expected to contribute to approximately 250,000 additional deaths per year, from malnutrition, malaria, diarrhea and heat stress.
