Abstract: The greatest single impact of climate change might be on human migration with millions of people displaced by shoreline erosion, coastal flooding and agricultural disruption. Migration and movement of people is a particularly critical source of potential conflict. Even a sea level rise of 30cm will make large low lying areas uninhabitable and result in forced migration. These force people off their land much more quickly and dramatically. Large scale population displacement will redraw the ethnic map of many countries. It is the poorest in the poorest countries who will suffer most and in the greatest numbers
