Iran is not currently one of the top 10 countries at risk of climate disaster. However, climate change made it 16 more times likely for drought to happen in Iran. Iran has already faced several deadly floods. Iranian environmentalists and academics warn people the government is falling behind on climate adaptation, which is likely to increase vulnerability.<ref name="Mansouri Daneshvar-2019" /> Iran is ranked 66th, which is second to last in this year’s [[Climate Change Performance Index|CCPI]]. |
