The World Bank published a report in which experts estimated the potential losses from the increase in the global
"Climate change is becoming an increasingly powerful driver of migration," the report said.Food and water shortages, along with rising sea levels, underscore the need to act now, "as people's livelihoods and well-being become increasingly dire."
"Without decisive action, climate migration hotspots could emerge over the next decade," warnsJürgen Voegele, World Bank Vice President for Sustainable Development.By 2050 , people will leaveplaces that will no longer be able to provide them with resources and will go to other areas.
At the same time, Fogele notes that “if countries nowwill begin to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, close development gaps, restore vital ecosystems and help people adapt, internal climate migration will be reduced by 80% to 44 million people by 2050. "
According to the report, due to climate change, the numbermigrants by 2050 will grow to 86 million in sub-Saharan Africa, 49 million in East Asia and the Pacific, 40 million in South Asia, 19 million in North Africa, 17 million in Latin America and 5 million in Eastern Europe and Central Asia ...
The report focuses on access to water in North Africa.For example, the city of Alexandria in Egypt, as well as the eastern and western parts of the Nile River Delta, "canbecome emigration hotspots due to reduced water availability and rising sea levels." At the same time, the capitals of the countries of the region will become"Climate Migration Centers".
