Typhoon Noul Hits China Amid Climate Crisis | Auckland News

Typhoon Noul is slamming into southern China, forcing over 20,000 evacuations and shutting down rail lines as it barrels toward the coast between Hong Kong and Guangdong. With an orange alert in place, gales and torrential rain are expected to hit Guangdong and Fujian, while fishing boats are being recalled to safety. This follows the deadly aftermath of Typhoon Maysak, which killed 39 in Guangxi and 11 in Hubei. Scientists link the surge in extreme weather to climate change fueled by fossil fuel emissions — even as China, a major emitter, pushes aggressively toward carbon neutrality by 2060.
