Climate change impacts women and children disproportionately. Rising sea waters, increasingly frequent and severe natural disasters, fire, drought, soil erosion and other effects of climate change impact the peace and security of millions of women and children:  from income to food security, migration and displacement from homes, to the increase of conflict- climate change’s toll is as significant on humanity as it is on the planet.
