Innledning
Climate migration is a rising trend, and around the world we are experiencing life-threatening disasters due to climate change almost every day. A person that migrates because the weather conditions are unsafe and a danger to life is a climate migrant, but there is no real set term for them yet.
We will most likely experience more climate migrants over the next few years, and that is one reason why we might need better migration laws that also includes climate migrants.
Utdrag
In the future we are expecting even more climate refugees as the climate keeps on changing for the worse, and that may lead to even more robust natural disasters.
All over the world people are experiencing climate change, and it is getting realer every day. For example, the coast of Bangladesh is flooding, and people must now move in risky ways often ending up in slums.
(McDonnell 2018) Also in Somalia and Afghanistan people must take flight from the drought that is happening persistently in the country, leaving over 750 000 people homeless. (Martin 2019) As long as the world do nothing about the climate issue, we will keep on having climate migrants, and we will only see an increased amount.
The climate and natural disasters are getting more harmful and violent, and we already see how the climate is affecting how many people are migrating, as well as how it affects both people and countries.
There are many possible consequences this should have for migration laws. For example, a consequence should be that they world all together make a better international law that claims and acknowledges climate migrants as refugees too by making a term and definition.
