Climate-Induced Natural Disasters in 2022

Written By Cooper Wechkin

2022 was no stranger to climate-induced natural disasters. From record-breaking heat waves, devastating typhoons, and rising sea levels, the consequences of global warming are affecting all corners of the globe, afflicting communities around the world. 

To help visualize the impact of #globalwarming on natural disasters, we created a global map view of some of the cataclysmic weather events that occurred this year.

Natural disasters have increased 5x over the last 50 years, causing more deaths. With increasing atmospheric temperatures, this rate is expected to increase. It’s clear that the time to act is now.
