Climate refugees are individuals or groups who are forced to leave their homes and seek refuge elsewhere due to sudden or gradual changes in their environment that are primarily caused by climate change. These changes include extreme weather events, rising sea levels, and prolonged droughts that disrupt living conditions and threaten livelihoods. The phenomenon of climate refugees raises important social and political issues, as affected populations often face significant challenges in resettlement and adaptation to new environments.
