The financial burden of climate crisis affects women more
A new research shows that women in rural areas have much more economic loss compared to the effects of climate collapse, compared to men in developing countries, and the difference in the meantime will be further opened. According to the data published by the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), households in rural areas are family reisis, due to hot stress, losing about 8 percent more than the households that the income of the man is reis, and the reduction in income when floods is about 3 percent more than the loss of men live. The difference between low and medium-income countries in the world means more than 37 billion dollars and more than 16 billion dollars lost due to the hot stress of women every year.
Children in the warm
The researchers predict that the increase of 1 degree in long-term average temperatures is associated with a reduction of approximately three in the income of the households in which the man is reisted by households. According to the report, children and women have to work more when extreme high temperatures are effective. Children in rural regions work more than an average hour per week. Lauren Phillips from the common writers of FAO’s inclusive rural transformation and gender equality and report said that governments are not targeted to account the factors that make women disadvantaged and solve these problems of climate assistance. According to Phillips, the report is the first study that clearly measures it. Phillips can be a very dramatic effect on the growth of “This sex difference GSYH (Gay Safi Milli Hasila). With focus on women 45 million people can reduce food insecure, we can increase GDP in global diameter 1 percent.” [
Elim financing should be targeted for women[
It is estimated that less than 2 percent of global climate financing reaches small-scale food producers. Women from climate crisis are more affected by men. Because effects worsen existing inequalities such as the right of land use and lack of economic opportunities for women. Women are also overtaking water, fuel and food. Lauren Phillips states that governments and donors can solve these problems with better targeting aids; “There are greater benefits of targeting climate funding to them to ensure women’s power. We need to focus on it consciously to achieve higher return than investment. "

Agricultural will be forced even more as expected]
The researchers analyzed socioeconomic data derived from more than 100 thousand rural households, representing more than 950 million people in 24 low and medium income countries. This contributes to an increasingly increasing number of research, showing women and vulnerable people suffer from the effects of climate crisis. The report also revealed that older people have the opportunity to move more than the influences of extreme weather conditions and are more affected by young people who are still poor, more vulnerable than those with high income. The report also revealed that due to poor households, floods or extreme temperatures, the average amount of 5 percent more losses than the neighbors in better condition. Phillips; “We found that the change of hope has made the poor in the rural part more dependent on agriculture. As climate change, agriculture will be forced further.
