Move to Canada to survive climate change, says report

If you want to survive climate change, load up your car and head to Canada., according to a recent study by Maplecroft, a British consultant group. Canada is followed by Ireland, Norway, Denmark and Sweden. The United States cames in 11th, followed by the U.K.

Africa is the most vulnerable region, with eight of the 10 most vulnerable countries located in Africa. Five non-African countries made it onto the list of the twenty most vulnerable; Yemen, Afghanistan, Haiti, Pakistan and Nepal. The Comoros Islands in the Indian Ocean is the world's most vulnerable country, according to the report, due to political instability, risk of increased storms, rising sea levels and agricultural issues.

So why did Canada score so well? Low pressure on natural resources due to low population density, combined with high agricultural capacity, a healthy economy and excellent public institutions. However, Canada's wildlife was expected to be seriously affected by changes to the Arctic region.
