Climate change causes sea-level rise, natural resource scarcity, and natural disasters. Southern Sudan started experiencing drought as a result of sea level temperature rise in the Indian Ocean. The drought was ongoing between 2006-2009 . Climate change makes forced migration and climate refugees more prevalent.

Since 2009, the partnership has put practices in place to reduce the nitrogen pollution flowing into the Bay each year by 30 million pounds—roughly 42 percent of the required reduction. Extreme storms, heat, and rising sea levels make restoration harder and put both communities and the watershed’s natural resources at risk.
