Climate Change Displacement

Climate change displacement occurs when environmental changes like rising sea levels, intense storms, droughts, and flooding make certain areas uninhabitable or unsafe. As a result, people are forced to leave their homes and seek refuge elsewhere. This displacement can cause loss of homes, livelihoods, and community ties, often creating complex social, economic, and political challenges for both the displaced individuals and receiving locations. It highlights how climate change directly impacts human life and highlights the importance of global efforts to mitigate environmental damage and support affected populations.
