With its population expected to double to 2.5 billion people by 2050, Africa has been disproportionally affected by the impacts of climate change. Africa contributes only 4% of the global carbon emissions; however, 7 out of the 10 countries most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change globally are located in Africa. High- income and upper middle- income countries contribute to 87% of global carbon emissions but are less vulnerable to the impacts of climate change.
