I believe the idea is that equatorial countries are the ones most affected by flooding due to sea levels rising and more powerful storms.

- godelski 7y agoIndia is a current example of this btw. They've been facing much more devastating floods recently. We can also tract hurricanes in the Atlantic and is is easy to see that the frequency and intensity is increasing. Equatorial regions are also subject to more droughts. There is also a correlation between equatorial countries and many being 2nd or 3rd world countries, which do not have the technological nor economical resources that deal with these events as well as 1st worlds.
