Refugees the world barely pays attention to: An emerging category, “climate refugees,” lacks any protection under international law. Since 2008, 24 million people have been displaced by catastrophic weather disasters each year https://t.co/ktNqvke2fK

"Egypt: 5 million could be displaced by climate change. The climate change on Egypt's northern coast is expected to lead to the migration of at least five million people from the Nile Delta if appropriate measures are not taken"
