certain types of hazardous weather.

poorest and most vulnerable people in society, an erosion of biodiversity, increasing
difficulties in providing food and shelter, as well as the potential loss of entire

winter might bring, or how far sea levels will rise due to warmer sea temperatures. It
helps people understand and address the impacts of the climate crisis, empowering
