Children born in this era will bear the brunt of the impacts of climate change - a crisis they did not create on their own.
A new report from Save the Children estimates the number of climate-induced natural disasters that children born today will experience.
The average one-year-old will face 24 times more fires, floods, crop failures, droughts, and heat waves than their grandparents.
The report, "Born into the Climate Crisis" uses modeling for 178 countries to predict how climate change will affect children born in 2020 during their lifetime.
