Mini-Refugee Camps Sprouting Up in Germany
posted by Noah at 12:14 PM
German artist Hermann Josef Hack, founder of the Global Brainstorming Project, has started setting up miniature refugee camps in public spaces to bring attention to the people already suffering from the effects of climate change. 500 tiny tents have already been on display in Berlin (shown) and are moving on to Leipzig and Dresden later this month.

The UN say, that there will be more than 200 million climate refugees worldwide. Today, people in Africa, India, Peru suffer from desertification, tsunamis, floods. The islands of Tuvalu and Kiribati will disappear within 10 years because of sealevel rising. Most people in the poorer regions live in megacities. If a flood or a tsunami will distroy their homes, millions of homeless people will be forced to move away.
