518    Originally produced by The Video Project in 2010. 
520    Climate Refugees is the first feature film to explore in-
       depth the global human impact of climate change and its 
       serious destabilizing effect on international politics. 
       The film turns the distant concept of global warming into 
       a concrete human problem with enormous worldwide 
       consequences. Experts predict that by mid-century hundreds
       of millions of people will be uprooted as a result of sea 
       level rise and an increase in extreme weather events, 
       droughts and desertification. Little is being done to plan
       for the potential mass migration of millions of refugees 
       who will be forced to cross national borders. According to
       the UN, there are already more environmental refugees in 
       the world than political or religious refugees. The 
       Pentagon now considers climate change a national security 
       risk and the phrase "climate wars" is being talked about 
       in war-rooms. The filmmakers traveled the world for nearly
       3 years to document the impact of climate change, 
       witnessing inhabitants of countries forced to leave their 
       homes by climatic events with little or no protection. The
       film features a variety of leading scientists, relief 
       workers, security consultants, and major political figures,
       including John Kerry and Newt Gingrich. All make a strong 
       case that, whether human-caused or a product of nature, 
       the changing climate is already creating humanitarian 
       disasters and will inevitably lead to worldwide political 
       instability. Climate Refugees was filmed in Bangladesh, 
       Tuvalu, China, Fiji, Chad, Sudan, Kenya, Maldives, Europe 
       and the US.
