Same-sex couples in the United States are more vulnerable to climate change threats compared to heterosexual couples, according to a report from the UCLA School of Law. The study highlights the disproportionate impact of climate change on LGBTQ+ communities, particularly in coastal and urban areas with inadequate infrastructure and fewer resources. The researchers emphasize the need for disaster relief policies that are inclusive and non-discriminatory, ensuring access to essential services and financial support for LGBTQ+ individuals and families. Additionally, they recommend expanding federal and local surveys to collect data on a wider range of sexual orientations and gender identities to better assess climate risks and inform policies.
