Norvergence after analyzing many reports found that there are a lot of chances that the effects of climate change may hit the poor harder than rich people. This will ultimately break down the concept of human rights. Norvergence quotes a piece of the report written by Philip Aston, “Even under the best-case scenario [of reduced carbon emissions], hundreds of millions will face food insecurity, forced migration, disease, and death. Read this post as well: Norvergence: Climate Change is Driving Migrants to the US Borders While people in poverty are responsible for just a fraction of global emissions, they will bear the brunt of climate change, and have the least capacity to protect them.” In other words, rich people will pay to escape the famine and fire of climate change while the rest will suffer. Environmentalists at Norvergence have stated that climate change is started posing a direct threat to the basics of water, food, and housing of millions of poor people living across the world.
