The observed warming in Malawi between 1901 and 2021. Malawi is a land-locked country in southeastern Africa situated along the southernmost arm of the East African Rift-Valley System between latitudes 9°22’ and 17°03’ south of the equator, and longitudes 33°40’ and 35°55’ east of the Greenwich meridian.
Those countries have been quite vocal in calling attention to the challenges they face from climate change. [2] For example, the Maldives and nations of the Caribbean and Pacific Islands are already experiencing considerable impacts of climate change. [3] It is critical for them to implement climate change adaptation measures fast. [3]
By 2100, sea level in the Caribbean is expected to rise by 1.4 m. [23] Rise in sea level could impact coastal communities of the Caribbean if they are less than 3 metres (10 ft) above the sea. In Latin America and the Caribbean, it is expected that 29–32 million people may be affected by the sea level rise because they live below this threshold.
Emissions attributed to specific power stations around the world, color-coded by type of fuel used at the station. Lower half focuses on Europe and Asia [1]. This article is a list of locations and entities by greenhouse gas emissions, i.e. the greenhouse gas emissions from companies, activities, and countries on Earth which cause climate change.

Some warned that warming stripes of individual countries or states, taken out of context, could advance the idea that global temperatures are not rising, [35] though research meteorologist J. Marshall Shepherd said that "geographic variations in the graphics offer an outstanding science communication opportunity". [100]
