Poorest parts of the world will be hit first and worst by climate change

Poorest parts of the world will be hit first and worst by climate change

It is becoming clear that people in the poorest parts of the world will be hit first and worst by climate change.

Kay MacDuffee – Tragedy has devastated this settlement again and again
