The damage to people and livelihoods caused by climate change is happening at a scale that "people on the front lines cannot manage", according to the UN's humanitarian office, OCHA.
OCHA says that "time is running out for millions of people who are already losing their lives, their homes and their livelihoods" due to "extreme weather" that is "decimating" communities across the globe.
The majority of those people live in some of the poorest countries in the world, which are the least to blame for the emissions of harmful greenhouse gasses that are driving climate change.
