action on climate refugees

Climate refugees are people displaced due to environmental changes caused by climate change, such as rising sea levels, floods, droughts, or extreme storms. Actions to support them include developing legal protections, creating international frameworks for their rights, and providing humanitarian aid. Governments and organizations are working to recognize their situations, assist with relocation or adaptation, and address the root causes of climate change to prevent further displacement. Ensuring these individuals are supported with dignity and rights is essential as climate impacts become more severe globally.
