Climate Migration to the Global Gateway

Abstract

The complexities of climate migration compels us to focus on the potential significant impact it has on the future. Historically speaking, the ice age presented difficulties for the humans to sustain a living but in due course, gradual increase in temperature resulted in better adaptation. Unfortunately, certain elements like that of the growing rate in population, industrialisation and severe rise in temperatures resulted in the danger of budding hot zones and glacier melts. The repercussions of which were visible in many cities in the form of rise in sea levels leaving certain cities submerged under water. Human habitation seems to have suffered a direct hit with the upsurge in greenhouse gasses emission and the resultant rising temperature. Climate change can be expressed as an eminent global phenomenon with its constant reminder through natural disasters taking place worldwide and supported campaigns promoting prevention. Not much has been discussed about resultant migration conflicts. Unfortunately the countries hit worst with forced migration are the ones already dealing with scarcity of resources, poverty, lower ability to evolve with recent economic and technological developments, unable to sustain independently. Literature on climate induced migration reports an association between...
