【 摘 要 】

The issue of climate change is a topic of close concern to both domestic and foreign society, and it is also an important issue affecting the sustainable development of all mankind. This article explains the impact of climate change on the country in two representative countries: Chad and Afghanistan. To measure a country's vulnerability index and how it is affected by climate change, we identified four main indicators of climate change: temperature, precipitation, forest area, and agricultural land area to analyse the country's vulnerability index. The indirect effects of climate change are measured using the Spearman coefficient matrix.
