Zusammenfassung:In this special topos about climate migration, we venture into the complex question of how countries, cities and societies should deal with the challenges of increasing climate migration. We look at the countries with the greatest challenges in climate migration, have made contact with the world’s largest refugee camp and take stock of the handling in the host countries. Climate change threatens millions of lives. At the same time, our world and especially its industrialized nations are not yet able to take the necessary steps to sustainably support endangered and weakened nations. As Sam Valentine’s article (pp. 80-84) on the situation in the U.S. shows – this is because the economic powers of this world are barely getting their own climate problems under control. From extreme drought to rising sea levels: Climate change is multi-faceted. In this topos, we discuss how society can deal with the increase of climate migration worldwide.
