USA: Extreme weather causes billions in damage every three weeks

Climate change harms people in the USA physically, psychologically and financially and often hits those who have contributed the least. This is the result of a report by the US government, prepared for the first time since 2018 and authored by around 750 scientists. „This assessment shows us in clear scientific terms that climate change is impacting all regions, all sectors of the United States,“ said US President Joe Biden. „It shows that communities across America are taking more action than ever to reduce climate risks and warns that more action is still badly needed.“
