Hardest Hit: Survival strategies from the front lines of climate change

Around the world, our climate is changing. And some of us are hit harder than others. From the US Gulf Coast to southern Ethiopia, from the rice fields of Vietnam to the villages of El Salvador, it's the poorest people who are on the front lines of climate change. Water – whether too much or too little – is often the heart of the problem. Droughts, floods, and storms pose a growing threat to people's safety and survival. But poor communities are fighting back. Featuring stories from four countries, this video shows how community-led solutions – from elevated houses to cleaner wells – are helping people adapt to the effects of climate change.
