How the rich world is fortifying itself against climate migration

https://phys.org/news/2025-11-rich-world-fortifying-climate-migration.html

The UK has announced much harsher rules for asylum seekers, including the prospect of more deportations for those whose applications fail. The US is trebling the size of its deportation force. The EU is doubling its border budgets. And in the coming decades, hundreds of millions of people might be displaced by ecological changes.

Denmark, Australia, UK, Italy, US, Germany, Netherlands and on and on..all.going full fascist, helping destroy the biosphere for those who didn't cause this and then telling the to fcuk off when they need help.

Greed and selfisness not unexpted, just disappointing.. Again

I wonder if it would be cheaper to rebuild the infrastructure of all those countries the UK, EU, USA bombed. I mean maybe just maybe if they had hospitals, schools, transportation again immigrants would happily go back than suffer living like rats in the afirmentioned areas

It almost certainly would be, but the cruelty is the point.

Plus aging population + hollowed out industrial base. It's not going to be great on the right side of the walls, either.

And civilians will let them keep their wealth doing absolutely nothing about those who oppress them.
