This fact sheet, produced by the Climate and Development Knowledge Network, outlines the projected impacts of a 1.5°C global temperature increase on Namibia and provides recommendations for climate adaptation and resilience.

• Global warming of 1.5°C is expected to have a more severe impact on Namibia than the global average, with temperatures projected to rise by between 1.6°C and 2.1°C across different regions, while rainfall is expected to decrease by 3% to 7%.
• Climate change is projected to increase the frequency and intensity of droughts, leading to water scarcity that threatens crops and human livelihoods, and may result in more frequent and severe heatwaves.
• Rising temperatures and changing rainfall patterns are expected to alter the distribution of diseases, specifically predicting the return of Malaria to Namibia as conditions become more favorable for mosquitoes.
• Environmental degradation is anticipated, including the potential loss of 30 species of plants, increased soil erosion, and a higher risk of cholera and hepatitis E due to contaminated water sources from floods.
• Recommended adaptation strategies include diversifying crops to include drought-resistant varieties, implementing soil and water conservation techniques, promoting agroforestry, and establishing community support groups for financial savings.
