'No place like home' - climate refugees
Loading...
Uploaded by EnvironmentalJustice on Nov 4, 2009
By 2050, there will be an estimated 150 million climate refugees, forced to
leave their homes by droughts, extreme weather patterns and sea level rise.
There is no international law designed to protect their needs.
EJF talked to President Mohamed Nasheed of the Maldives and Premier Tolagi of Niue about how climate change is affecting their countries.
The Environmental Justice Foundation is a UK charity working internationally to protect the natural environment and human rights, campaigning for reductions in greenhouse gases, and calling for international protection for climate refugees.
We believe that that there needs to be a legally-binding, international Protocol that identifies and protects these people displaced from their homes by deteriorating
environmental conditions.

yes, very good ad. I'm putting it on my playlist, as these people need to go somewhere, a place where they will be accepted...these people might be captured into slavery at a grotesque rate...that is, if they don't drown or starve first...
