Climate change threatens regions in China, the USA and India the most

Among the 50 regions worldwide most threatened by climate change are predominantly provinces and cities in China, the USA and India. A global ranking of the regions most vulnerable to extreme weather events in 2050 shows that 16 of the 20 most vulnerable areas are in China alone. The coastal province of Jiangsu, which accounts for one-tenth of China’s economic output, is considered the most at-risk area. It is followed by neighboring Shandong and the major steel-producing region of Hebei.
