Report: 189 million victims of extreme weather in developing countries every year

Since 1991, an average of 189 million people in developing countries have been victims of extreme weather every year. That states a report from the organization Loss & Damage Collaboration today. The report also calculates that the global fossil fuel industry made about $30 trillion (also $30 trillion) profits between 2000 and 2019, while over the same period the cost of climate damage in 55 of the world’s most climate-vulnerable countries rose to $525 billion.
