Climate Refugees

Working in groups, class members composed a short Reuters-style multimedia Introduction/ Lede about climate refugees and communities in crisis as a result of environmental disasters. They posed the following questions:

How has climate change affected the region and lives you are discussing?

How would you describe the struggles this community faces?

What is your prediction for the future?
