Human Tide: The Real Migration Crisis

This week's report of the week is by christian aid. Entitled "Human Tide: The Real Migration Crisis" this latest report looks at one of the greatest potential impacts of climate change, the distinctly human rather than environmental impact of mass migration.

"At least one billion people will be forced from their homes between now and 2050 as the effects of climate change deepen an already burgeoning global migration crisis, predicts a new Christian Aid report."
A great number of development organisations are now looking at climate change, and issue that is so huge as to be a daunting addition to these groups doing very direct and worthwhile development work...but it is becoming increasingly obvious that climate change threatens to wash away any hope of development for the poor, hence christain aids latest climate campaign.

Oxfam, World Development Movement, MedAct, RedCross,
