Southern Asia is already the wettest area on the continent, and
. . . one of the wettest regions in the world, receiving an average of at least
. . . 1000mm of rainfall a year.
As the rains fall harder, more than
. . . 137 million people in:
. . . . . . India,
. . . . . . Bangladesh, and
. . . . . . China, will be put at risk of coastal or inland flooding,
. . . more people than in the rest of the Asia-Pacific combined, a study in 2012 found.

In the next 30 years,
. . . it is projected that heavy rainfall events will be increasing in Asia, by about 20%.
