> But it is much more likely that they'll die from wars caused by climate change. For kids in rich countries, it is much more likely that they'll kill in wars caused by climate change (or vote / pay for soldiers to do the killing for them). Sadly, climate refugees will be an easy target for modern armies, and when voters see millions of starving people trying to cross their borders, they will listen to the politicians who call this an invasion that needs a forceful response. Some places are already seeing these harsh political forces playing out, for example the UK, where the government is trying to make it illegal to rescue asylum seekers in boats[0] at a time when dozens can die on a single failed crossing.[1] [0] https://www.newstatesman.com/politics/2021/07/priti-patel-making-it-illegal-uk-rescue-asylum-seekers https://www.newstatesman.com/politics/2021/07/priti-patel-ma...
