Top 5 Countries Most Affected by Global Warming

2. Mozambique

Global Warming Impact Score: 84.7

Mozambique’s 2,300 km coastline makes it highly vulnerable to cyclones, flooding, and rising sea levels resulting in soil salinization and loss of land. According to the INFORM Climate Change Risk Index, it is the 9th most vulnerable country to climate-related hazards such as heatwaves, droughts, and floods. Mozambique was hit by the devastating Cyclone Freddy in March 2023, which caused displacement of more than 20,000 people and destruction of significant infrastructure.
