This beautiful interactive, multimedia piece by the New York Times, vividly displays how climate change is impacting 193 countries.
Here are some examples:
- Netherlands. Skating the canals in Amsterdam has been a winter tradition for hundreds of years. But in the last decade, the canals have only frozen three times.
- Senegal. Three months’ worth of rain fell in a single day in September 2020, leaving Dakar sunk under algae covered water.
- Tanzania. Wildfires are breaking out on Mt. Kilimanjaro.
- Kuwait. The temperature in Nuwaiseeb reached 127.7 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Switzerland. The warming temperatures are melting the ice and snow pack that holds the mountains together, so now the Swiss Alps are increasingly crumbling.
