Climate change in Sri Lanka is an important issue, and its effects threaten to impact both human and natural systems in Sri Lanka. Roughly 50 percent of its 22 million citizens live in low-lying coastal areas in the west, south, and south-west of the island, and are at risk of future sea level rise. Climate change also threatens the island's biodiversity, including its marine ecosystem and coastal coral reef environments. Sea-level rise due to climate change has the potential to affect the overall abundance of endemic species. Sri Lanka's coastal regions, such as the Northern Province and the Northern Western Province, are considered major hotspots and extremely vulnerable to climate change. These maritime provinces are the most densely populated. In addition to being a threat to Sri Lanka

  • يُعد تغير المناخ في سريلانكا قضية مهمة تهدد تأثيراتها النظم البشرية والطبيعية في سريلانكا. يعيش ما يقارب 50% من مواطنيها الذين يبلغ عددهم 22 مليون نسمة في المناطق الساحلية في الغرب والجنوب والجنوب الغربي من الجزيرة، وهي تُعد عرضة لخطر ارتفاع مستوى سطح البحر. يهدد تغير المناخ التنوع البيولوجي للجزيرة، بما في ذلك بيئات النظام الإيكولوجي البحري والشعاب المرجانية الساحلية. يمكن لارتفاع مستوى سطح البحر الناجم عن تغير المناخ أن يؤثر على الوفرة العامة للأنواع المستوطنة. تعتبر المناطق الساحلية في سريلانكا، مثل المقاطعة الشمالية والمقاطعة الشمالية الغربية، مناطق ساخنة رئيسية ومعرضة بشدة لتغير المناخ. تُعد هذه المقاطعات البحرية الأكثر كثافة سكانيًا. بالإضافة إلى كونه تهديدًا للتنوع البيولوجي لسريلانكا، قد يسبب تغير المناخ عواقب وخيمة على مختلف المستويات في هذه المجالات. تشمل هذه العواقب: التأثير على (ar)
