Shock 12000000 people evacuated from Zhengzhou as a result of the flood! Henan Province in prayer!

The study sends “a clear signal that the warmer we allow the climate to get, the greater the dollar loss from flooding,“ said a scientist who was not involved in the study. They add that the results are “important“ because they allow policymakers to “see the economic cost of inaction.“ At the end of the month, three days of record flooding in the central Chinese city of Zhengzhou, home to 12 million people, brought nearly a year’s worth of rainfall. The resulting flood was the city’s worst natural disaster in decades, killing nearly 400 people. Unprecedented rain also lashed nearby cities in Henan province, causing flash floods and landslides. Crops were flooded, more than 50,000 houses were destroyed, and more than 1.4 million people were evacuated. In total, the rain caused 120 billion yuan in direct economic damage, including 41 billion yuan in Zhengzhou alone.
