SHARM EL-SHEIKH, Egypt, Nov 9 (Reuters) - While delegates at the COP27 climate conference discuss the shared problem of climate change, each country will face its own challenges and threats.
In February, the U.N. climate science agency released a major report on adapting to a warmer world - and detailed how that effort would differ from place to place.
While some countries see glaciers melt or coastlines rise, others will contend mostly with raging wildfires and extreme heat, the report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change said.
A World Bank report warned in September that climate impacts, including water scarcity and declining crop yields, could force some 216 million to migrate within their own countries by 2050.
And in the Arctic, melting sea ice, warming temperatures, and thawing permafrost will push many species to the brink of extinction.
