"Climate Changed is an honest and humane account about the rapid downsizing of the
world's natural resources and the consequences this has for millions of people who,
year after year, are displaced from their home countries because of politically-instigated
and economically-justified war and conflict. Based on interviews with 110 refugees
who arrived into Europe from 2015 to 2018 and observations of refugee camps, border
crossings, inner-city slums, social housing projects, NGO and related refugee associations,
it offers a moving insight into the refugee experience of leaving home, crossing borders
and settling in Europe and sets this against the geo-political and commercial enterprise
that dismantled their countries in the international chase for wilting quantities
of the world's natural resources. Yet at every point of their journey to their new
lives and in the resettlement process, the refugees are on the end of more perpetual
victimisation and exploitation as there is always money to be made from them. Even
if their labour is in demand, all this is further exacerbated by a European social
climate of intolerance and stigma which jeopardises integration and counters their
wellbeing and safety. The climate has changed. Students, lecturers and professors
and other similar academic workers, policymakers, various practitioners, and voluntary
workers within the sector of refugee frontlines as well as aid workers, town planners
and welfare support staff would find relevance in this book"
