Severe drouhts and heat waves

Extreme weather induced by global warming has terrible consequences in public health, heat waves already threatening the vulnerable side of the society. Even if some areas of Europe will become wetter due to climate change, other areas will be hit by droughts and heat waves.


Water is already an extremely rare commodity in underprivileged countries such as Africa, therefore it is the most vulnerable and will receive the worst of it. If we take a look at this we might consider it ironic, thinking at the fact that such regions contributed the least to global warming.

Researchers say that climate change and global warming will aggravate the conditions and could lead to conflicts and war.
