Wars result in long-term damage to air, water, soil, and the climate.

Greenhouse gas emissions are considered the primary driver of global warming.

War contributes to this through the conduct of military operations—such as the deployment of tanks and combat aircraft—which consume vast quantities of fossil fuels.

Fires ignited by warfare emit large amounts of CO2.

The destruction of infrastructure—particularly energy infrastructure—releases massive quantities of asbestos and greenhouse gases, while subsequent reconstruction efforts also generate high levels of emissions.

Air traffic rerouted to bypass conflict zones also leads to increased fuel consumption, as does the manufacturing of ammunition and military equipment, which requires significant resources.

The European Union uses the European Green Deal to cut emissions and promote sustainability. EU climate policy links to migration because climate change can force people to move due to droughts, floods, and food shortages. Preventive action can reduce displacement by limiting climate impacts and improving resilience, but it cannot fully stop migration because some climate change is already happening and other factors also drive movement.

Climate migrants are not clearly protected under existing international law. The 1951 Refugee Convention does not include climate-related displacement, and the European Union only offers limited humanitarian and asylum support. As climate impacts like floods, droughts, and sea-level rise increase, legal frameworks should be updated to provide better protection for affected people.

Climate migration is considered the migration that occurs due to excessive climate changes in different regions all across the globe. People tend to migrate either due to excessive high temperatures in their region, tsunamis or even extreme weather events making it impossible for humans to continue living there. Even though it is different than other forms of migration it is still considered an important matter and same laws are implemented for this matter

Rising sea levels, droughts, floods, and extreme weather force many people to migrate because they destroy homes, farmland, and water supplies. Climate change increases these disasters, causing food insecurity and making some areas unsafe to live in.

Rising sea levels, droughts, floods, and food and water shortages force many people to migrate. For example, sea-level rise threatens Bangladesh, while droughts in the Sahel harm farming and water supplies. These problems are increasing because climate change is causing more extreme weather and higher temperatures.

# data[].attributes.body
The main climate impacts that force people to migrate are floods, droughts, rising sea levels, and extreme weather, because they destroy homes, farmland, and access to water. Migration is increasing as climate change intensifies and these events become more frequent and severe, especially in vulnerable regions with fewer resources to adapt.

# data[].attributes.body
Climate-driven migration is primarily forced by slow-onset events like sea-level rise, prolonged droughts, and desertification which make agricultural livelihoods impossible. Rapid-onset disasters like floods and hurricanes cause massive immediate displacement, while creeping environmental degradation compels long-term migration. Migration is increasing due to amplifying existing vulnerabilities, resource scarcity, and accelerated warming, with over 218 million internal displacements projected over the past decade.

The European Union plays an important role in fighting climate change through policies that promote sustainability and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. One of its main strategies is the European Green Deal, which aims to make Europe climate-neutral by 2050 through clean energy, sustainable transport, and environmental protection. These actions can also help reduce climate migration in the future.

# data[].attributes.body
Regions most affected by climate migration include Sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia, Southeast Asia, and small island states, where people face severe droughts, floods, rising sea levels, and extreme weather caused by climate change. These environmental problems force many communities to leave their homes and move to safer areas.

Climate migrants are not fully protected by international or European law because the 1951 Refugee Convention does not recognize climate change as a reason for refugee status. Although the European Union provides some humanitarian support, legal gaps remain. I believe the law should evolve because climate change increasingly forces people to leave their homes and they need international protection.

Climate migration can be reduced by lowering greenhouse gas emissions, improving adaptation measures like flood protection and drought-resistant farming, and increasing international cooperation. Technology such as clean energy and early-warning systems can also help communities become more resilient and reduce forced displacement.

# data[].attributes.body
Climate migration is the movement of people caused by climate change and environmental disasters such as floods, droughts, rising sea levels, and extreme weather. Unlike other migrants who move mainly for economic, political, or social reasons, climate migrants are forced to leave their homes because environmental conditions make living there difficult or dangerous.

# data[].attributes.body
Climate migration can be reduced through stronger climate action, better disaster preparedness, and support for vulnerable communities. Organizations such as the United Nations encourage countries to invest in sustainable development and climate adaptation to help people remain safely in their homes.

# data[].attributes.body
Climate migrants are not fully protected under international and European law because climate change is not officially recognized as a reason for refugee status under the 1951 United Nations Refugee Convention. However, human rights law and the European Court of Human Rights may provide limited protection in serious cases.

Climate migration is the movement of people caused by environmental changes such as rising sea levels, droughts or floods linked to climate change. Unlike economic migrants, climate migrants leave mainly because their safety is threatened by environmental conditions instead of jobs, war, or persecution.

# data[].attributes.body
Climate migrants are not formally recognized as a protected category under international or European law, and there is no specific legal status for “climate refugees.” However, they may still receive protection under existing refugee and human rights law when climate change creates serious threats to life or is linked to persecution or inhuman treatment. In the EU, such protection may be granted through asylum, subsidiary protection, or human rights safeguards in exceptional cases.
