climate migration

Climate migration refers to the movement of people caused by changing climate conditions, such as rising sea levels, increased storms, droughts, or prolonged floods. These environmental changes can make areas uninhabitable or less productive, forcing communities to relocate in search of safer, more stable living conditions. Climate migration can be internal (within a country) or international, and it often involves complex social, economic, and political factors. This phenomenon highlights how climate change directly impacts human livelihoods, prompting communities to adapt by moving to new areas in response to environmental challenges.
