Almost 90 million people who have been forcibly displaced are residing in countries that face significant risks from climate-related hazards, according to a statement from the UN refugee agency. This alarming figure underscores the pressing need for action as the world prepares for the upcoming Cop31 climate summit scheduled to take place in Turkey next week.
The agency’s remarks highlight the intersection of displacement and environmental vulnerability, pointing to the urgent need for strategies that address both humanitarian and ecological challenges.
