Africa in Double Jeopardy from Climate Change
This is Scott Amyx with today\u2019s Climate Change Flash Briefing. Last week the Tropical Cyclone Idai tore through Mozambique. An estimated 1.85 million people were affected by the cyclone. The city of Beira with its some 500,000 residents is said to be 90 percent destroyed. As many as 1,000 people are estimated to be dead. 3,000 people have been rescued but there are still 15,000 people that are unaccounted for. Some 394 square km or 152 square miles of Mozambique has been flooded.
