Climate Change’s impact on armed conflict and refugees
The Planet Today di Matt Norden and Nick Gennusa
Note sull'episodio
Matt and Nick talk about a study that predicts an increase in armed conflict in Africa.
They also get into the U.S. Military's carbon emissions and pollution levels, and why climate change can increase wars but wars also increase climate change.
They break down the impacts climate change will have on people as water and food availability decrease and the number of climate refugees increases.
Some people may even leave cities if infrastructure is not able to catch up to the threats caused by heat waves.
