Summary
War and climate disasters have displaced 35 million people within Africa, tripling since 2009, according to the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (IDMC).
Conflict is the primary cause, with 80% of displaced people from five countries: DRC, Ethiopia, Nigeria, Somalia, and Sudan.
Climate disasters, especially floods, have caused 6.3 million displacements in 2023, a sixfold rise since 2009.
The report urges African governments and international partners to address root causes and assist displaced populations.

Its happening now. The breakdown is here. Welcome to the collapse of all you know. Our wastelands only monuments pointing to a brighter past.
Its going to be interesting when this starts happening in North American, and in some places it may have already started.
Drought, wild fires, extreme heat, rise in ocean levels. Places like NYC, California, Florida may start becoming harder to live in. Canada may get colder and more extreme in temperature swings.
Places closer to or alongside the equator may become more ideal to live. That wall between the US and Mexico border might get in the way.
Yup, Florida is already on the path to uninhabitable. Tornado Alley is going to see more tornadoes. I live in the northeast and we’ve seen warmer seasons the past few years. We’re also seeing higher tides and more flooding. And it’s only going to get worse.

Isn’t it weird when the Pareto principle inverts, fixing the climate issues are a lot easier than fixing Africa warring with itself.
