The global climate crisis could see more than a billion people displaced from their homes in the next 30 years, as ecological disasters drive mass migrations and greater armed conflict, according to a new report released Wednesday.

@Npars01 @RustyBertrand @LauraJMG Mass migration? With the current political climate, it will probably be mass extermination.

@kroltanz @RustyBertrand @LauraJMG

It already has. Ethiopia. Somalia. Sub-Saharan Africa. Central America. Venezuela. Bangladesh. Libya.

Drought. Flooding. Hurricanes. Sand storms. Wildfires. Torrential rains

They all cause famines, civil wars over dwindling resources, mass exodus

@Npars01 @RustyBertrand @LauraJMG and it’s now affecting the affluent countries, who are reacting by putting policies in place to deny assistance.
