New hyperlocal data released today by Human Climate Horizons, a collaboration between the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the Climate Impact Lab (CIL), maps in detail this fivefold increase in susceptibility to flood damage along the world’s densely populated coastlines. “The effects of rising sea levels will put at risk decades of human development progress in densely populated coastal zones which are home to one in seven people in the world,” said Pedro Conceição, Director of UNDP’s Human Development Report Office. These impacts are detailed on Human Climate Horizons, empowering global citizens and decision-makers with localized information on the projected impacts of climate change over this century on people and communities.
