We see the impacts all around us, For the vast majority of people the impact of climate change means an increased risk of losing their homes and livelihoods, more disease, less security and sometimes death. Children in the world’s poorest communities are the most vulnerable. They are already seeing the impacts of climate change through malnutrition, disease, poverty, inequality and increasing risk of conflict - and ultimately an increase in child mortality rates. All the essential effects we are seeing now are associated with a temperature increase since 1850 of less than 1°C. Past actions and the likely trend of emissions of greenhouse gasses over the next few years imply that another 1 or 2 °C will be hard to avoid, even with responsible action. It will be the young and the poor and developing countries, such as [in] Africa, that will suffer earliest and hardest. A Our children — particularly those in Africa and Asia ~ are already facing a future in which it appears likely that disasters will increase in number and become more intense, where economic growth will falter and incomes fall, where disease outbreaks will be more frequent, clean water and good sanitation harder to secure, and habitats and communities less stable: As a consequence, children may also have to cope with higher levels of conflict and other pressures which keep them out of school and force them into work too soon. Many developing countries have poor infrastructure and lack the technologies that could help them cope with a changing climate, such as flood defences and early warning systems, They are thus more vulnerable to the impact of climate change and their children are the most vulnerable of all.
