The recent International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) World Disasters Report 2020 and the Reports from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPPC), including the Report on Oceans and the Cryosphere of 2019, point to an increasing risk of disasters and adverse effects of climate change, which are worsened by the interface between disasters and climate change. Work by humanitarian organizations in the field and by scientific experts is showing that the effects of this intersection, which makes the impact of climate change and disasters even more dramatic, are here and that measures have to be taken to protect persons affected in this context. |
