☆ Catastrophic drought that’s pushed millions into crisis made 100 times more likely by climate change, analysis finds
  + stars: | 2023-04-27 | by ( Laura Paddison | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +6 min
CNN —The unrelenting drought that has devastated the Horn of Africa and left more than 20 million people facing acute food insecurity would not have been possible without climate change, a new analysis has found. In a world without human-caused climate change, this devastating drought would not have happened. The organization is made up of a team of international scientists who, in the immediate aftermath of extreme weather events, analyze data and climate models to establish what role climate change played. The scientists also looked at whether climate change was to blame for the lack of rain, but concluded there was no overall impact. “The country continues to pay the price of global warming and climate change,” he added.
