Does climate change lead to more migration? Here's why researchers can't agree on the evidence
Images of families displaced by floods, prolonged droughts or extreme storms have become a distressingly regular feature of the daily news. As the impact of climate change intensifies, so does concern over its effects on human mobility. Ongoing changes to the world's climate now raise a salient, apparently simple question: To what extent does climate change cause migration?

‘Second decade of Paris Agreement will focus on implementation, not negotiation,’ say climate leaders
On the opening day of London Climate Action Week, climate leaders framed the second decade of the Paris Agreement as one defined less by negotiation and more by collaboration and implementation, as global politics and economic tensions continue to reshape the conditions for climate diplomacy.

We are so fucked.

Thousands of shops, offices, schools and houses are several feet deep in effluent-rich water.
