It’s not just about sweltering summers or dwindling polar ice. The effects of climate change are as complex and far-reaching as the issue itself. One aspect that often gets overshadowed is its role as a catalyst for global tensions, a player on an unseen battlefield.

As our earth warms up, resources like water and food become scarcer. Habitats change, forcing people to relocate.

It then triggers disputes, competition, and, yes, even conflicts and wars. The effects of climate change aren’t limited to melting ice caps or intense heat waves; it’s also fueling a new age of conflict.
