UN warns climate change could force millions to move | DW News

Climate-related disasters are uprooting people at an unprecedented rate. From floods in Nepal to droughts, storms and wildfires across the globe, millions are being forced from their homes. The UN’s International Organization for Migration (IOM) says nearly 30 million disaster-related displacements were recorded in 2025 alone, while more than 200 million people live in areas highly vulnerable to climate change.
DW News speaks with Atle Solberg of the Platform on Disaster Displacement and our Climate Correspondent Tim Schauenberg.
