  • Namibia is projected to experience a temperature increase that exceeds the global average if global warming reaches 1.5°C, with global temperatures already having risen by 1°C since pre-industrial times.
  • Regional temperature and rainfall projections for a 1.5°C global warming scenario include: Arid South (+2.1°C temp, -3% rainfall), Arid North (+2.1°C temp, -4% rainfall), Semi Arid South (+2°C temp, -4% rainfall), Semi Arid North (+1.9°C temp, -7% rainfall), and Hyper Arid (+1.6°C temp, -6% rainfall).
  • Climate change is expected to increase the prevalence of heat, drought, and water scarcity, which will negatively impact crops and human lives. This includes a projected return of malaria to Namibia as conditions become more favorable for mosquitoes.
  • Environmental risks include the potential loss of 30 species of plants, increased soil erosion from pests and livestock, and the spread of cholera and hepatitis E due to contaminated water sources.
