"Climate Crisis And The Coming Refugee Crisis"

1) Since 2012 #Asylum applications from #CentralAmerica
have increased 2500 THOUSAND percent

2) #migrants coming are people like Jorge, displaced from his homeland due to #ClimateCrisis

3) Yet the U.S. refuses to take #ClimateChange seriously as a #NationalSecurity issue & refuses to see the connection of #ClimateCrisis to #Immigrationandasylum

4) Other nations are taking the #ClimateCrisis / #RefugeeCrisis seriously and even formed a pact, in which the U.S. refused to participate.

5) @propublica and the @NYTimes
teamed up to do a series on the serious implications of #ClimateCrisis on worldwide #migration

6) #Refugees streaming into the United States to escape #ClimateCatastrophe is not a foregone conclusion. We have the power to take action to abate the worst of the #ClimateCrisis so that people can continue to live where they were born.
