The damaged Songshan North Road of Zhengzhou after 2021 Henan floods

Several floods struck China starting in June 2021, most of them caused by heavy rainfalls in different areas. According to the World Meteorological Organization, such heavy rains are frequently a result of climate change.[1] The most notable floods were the 2021 Henan floods, which left 398 dead or missing.
