Melissa Fleming, UN on how climate change is causing drought and flooding

"Well, we have a lot of evidence from UN colleagues in the field working in fragile environments that climate change, which is causing, you know, horrific droughts, it's causing, you know, terrible flooding. It's causing, you know, the movements of people that it is exacerbating. Peace it's exact as exacerbating our peace building efforts and in many cases it can be the cause of conflict. So if we don't have climate action, if we don't have people, you know, living in places where they can grow their own food, where they don't feel forced to have to move on, where there isn't a battle for water, then you know we can have more peaceful communities. This is an added dimension that is is triggering a conflict and it's one that we really don't need in a world where there are already over 200 conflicts that are raging. Many of them do have a climate dimension and this is why we're saying solve climate action and we can also have a more peaceful world."
