Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Climate shocks are shaping human geographies, threatening coastlines, flooding settlements and heating up cities. Therefore, climate impacts and the associated environmental changes are increasingly reflected in social systems. Based on eight years of research, this book sheds light on the impact of climate extremes on migration and displacement. It provides insights into the different contexts in which people experience the effects of climate change and how they shape migration decisions. In the absence of a supranational governance framework, individuals and institutions are already searching for sustainable solutions across the migration cycle to uplift communities. This book builds on qualitative interviews and focus group discussions in numerous countries with people who had to leave their ancestral homelands due to climate impacts, with groups trying to support them, and also with those who want to prevent migration. These exchanges produced not only a body of scientific work, but also a complex overall picture and personal impressions of the state of our planet and the people who live on it. Kira Vinke's pioneering work on climate migration sheds light on the darkness in which millions of people are fighting for their own survival. Prof. Dr. Dr. h.c. mult. Hans Joachim Schellnhuber, Director General, International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis Kira Vinke s work is an eye-opening testimony to the impacts of the climate crisis on migration and displacement.
