Balkan countries suffer from climate change
In Paris, at the world summit on climate change, the non-governmental organization Germanwatch Nord-Süd-Initiative eV presented a report that describes countries that have experienced global climate change in 2014. Among these countries are Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Bulgaria.
So, in mid-May last year, floods in Serbia caused damage estimated at more than two billion dollars, and because of the floods and landslides in Bosnia and Herzegovina, about 90,000 people were forced to flee their homes. The amount of rainfall that occurred last year in Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina was a maximum of 120 years.
Before climate change in 2014, Bulgaria was also vulnerable, as a country in which the tourism and agriculture sectors were seriously affected, and natural disasters killed 31 people.
The Germanwatch report notes that poor countries are most vulnerable to climate change.
