Climate change is one of the most controversial topics because of its political and economic implications.
Accordingly, an important debate has arisen related to the need to legally recognize a new category of migrants known
as environmental refugees or migrants. There is currently, a well known refusal of governments to recognize an additional refugee category from the ones already covered by the 1951 Refugee Convention. There is also a lack of consensus even in the scientific and legal community. This phenomenon should not be seen as an argument from developing countries but as a topic that must be addressed by all countries, as a decision making mechanism prior to a well founded
political and legal decision.
