Climate changes and migration: an issue more urgent than ever

Abstract

Climate changes represents, without a doubt, one of the headlines of the current public
discourse, whether we are talking about politicians, non-governmental organizations,
academia or ordinary citizens. Since the legal implications of climate change, as a
fundamental part of the environmental legislative corpus, have been exposed and treated
extensively by prestigious representatives of the academic environment1 in Romania, in
the present study, we propose a slightly different approach to the problem, more precisely
from the perspective of its effects on migration and refugee rights.
