Climate change-induced mobility and the existing migration regime in Asia and the Pacific / Graeme Hugo
Migration as adaptation : opportunities and limits / Jon Barnett and Michael Webber
Climate-induced community relocation in the Pacific : the meaning and importance of land / John Campbell
Conceptualising climate-induced displacement / Walter Kalin
Disappearing states, statelessness and the boundaries of international law / Jane McAdam
Protecting people displaced by climate change : some conceptual challenges / Roger Zetter
International ethical responsibilities to climate change refugees / Peter Penz
Climate migration and climate migrants : what threat, whose security? / Lorraine Elliott
Climate-related displacement : health risks and responses / Anthony J McMichael, Celia E McMichael, Helen L Berry and Kathryn Bowen
Climate change, human movement and the promotion of mental health : what have we learnt from earlier global stressors? / Maryanne Loughry
Afterword What now? : climate-induced displacement after Copenhagen / Stephen Castles.
Environmental migration is not new. Nevertheless, the events and processes accompanying global climate change threaten to increase human movement both within states and across international borders. The Inter-governmental Panel on Climate Change has predicted an increased frequency and severity of climate events such as storms, cyclones and hurricanes, as well as longer-term sea level rise and desertification, which will impact upon people's ability to survive in certain parts of the world. This book brings together a variety of disciplinary perspectives on the phenomenon of climate-induced di.
