Floods, storms, droughts and fires caused by global warming displaced 43.1 million children between 2016 and 2021. And that's just the beginning, UNICEF warns in a report released this Friday (October 6, 2023). Partial projections, according to UNICEF, show that flooding associated solely with overflowing rivers could displace 96 million children over the next 30 years. And that's not all: these projections will be added to 10.3 million children displaced by cyclone winds and 7.2 million more after sea levels rose due to storms. More than 113 million children will be displaced in the next three decades, estimates a UNICEF report released this Friday, which takes into account the risks of river flooding, cyclonic winds and drought .
