Well, if this map is correct (and there is no reason to believe it isn't) the areas I have believed to be especially ravaged by climate change are in fact the ones in pretty good shape. My guess that my confusion is based on a perception bias caused by the fact that science gathering and news coverage of the climate crises is just better in places like Sweden and Germany than it is in Sierra Leone. And considering how dangerous climate change has already become in places like Minnesota, it is frightening to image how bad it must be in Bangladesh.
