Why do some climate disasters get more global sympathy than others?

Hi folks! So, something that’s been on my mind… Some climate events seem to get a huge global outpouring of support and sympathy, while others almost get ignored. Why do you think that is? Is it just about media attention, or are there other factors, like political interests or cultural biases? I’m not pointing fingers at any specific cases, but it seems like there’s this weird imbalance in the response to similar disasters. Anyone else find this a bit strange? Just trying to wrap my head around it!

That’s a great observation! It often comes down to media coverage, political interests, and even cultural connections, which can create disparities in how events are perceived and supported. It's definitely a complex issue that deserves more attention to ensure a more equitable response to all climate disasters!
