Climate Change
PNG is ranked 51 on the Global Climate Risk Index 2021, significantly higher than its Pacific counterparts. Exposure to hazards is substantial and expected to escalate. Many rural communities reside in flood and landslide risk areas, while coastal communities and infrastructure face exposure to sea-level rise, potentially exacerbating future storm surges.
