Megacities in Asia and Africa, including ones in Haiti, Bangladesh, Sierra Leone, Zimbabwe and Madagascar, face the greatest risk from the environmental impacts of climate change, according to a new report by Maplecroft.

Maplecroft的一份新报告指出,包括海地,孟加拉,塞拉利昂,津巴布韦及马达加斯加在内的亚非国家的一些大城市(译者注:“大城市”指人口逾百万的城市。)都面临着因气候变化造成的环境影响带来的巨大挑战。

The Climate Change Vulnerability map evaluates the susceptibility of 193 nations to extreme climate-related events, such as drought, cyclones, landslides, and sea-level rise, with each country's capacity to adapt to anticipated threats. 

“气候变化危险区地图”评估了193个国家境内易受如旱灾、飓风、滑坡及海平面上升等极端气候相关事件影响的地区。

The 10 countries at most risk include: Haiti, Bangladesh, Zimbabwe, Sierra Leone, Madagascar, Cambodia, Mozambique, DR Congo, Malawi and the Philippines.

10个风险最高的国家为:海地、孟加拉、津巴布韦、塞拉利昂、马达加斯加、柬埔寨、莫桑比克、民主刚果,马拉维及菲律宾。

The U.S. was ranked as low risk, along with many other countries in Northern Europe.

同许多北欧国家一样,美国的危险系数低。
