Climate change and its impact on migration to the North

Read on Louise Reader App.
This visually compelling book delves into the urgent reality of our changing climate. It explores the inevitability of global warming and its far-reaching consequences, providing convincing evidence that human actions have triggered chain reactions which we cannot stop.
While increased economic activity and greenhouse gas emissions are significant contributors, the most alarming threat lies in the activation of "sleeping giants" – natural climate feedback loops that amplify warming. The thawing of permafrost, for instance, releases potent greenhouse gases, further intensifying climate change. This vicious cycle, once initiated, is difficult, if not impossible, to reverse.
The book warns that the consequences of unchecked global warming will be severe, particularly for the world's most vulnerable populations. As temperatures rise, the disparity between the wealthy and secure North and the poor and unstable South will widen, leading to unprecedented mass migration from the South to the North. This massive climate migration could begin within the next one to two decades, presenting a significant challenge to global stability and cooperation.
