A new global report warns that over 1.2 billion people could be displaced by 2050 due to ecological disasters driven by climate change. Regions like Sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia, the Middle East, and North Africa are most at risk. The poorest populations will be hit hardest, facing threats like droughts, floods, and food insecurity. Water scarcity is expected to intensify, with over half the world’s population facing extreme water stress by 2040. Even developed nations may struggle to manage the fallout from mass climate-driven migration.
