It is now far more likely that much poorer states in the tropics and sub-tropics will experience severe impacts. This is compounded by the widening socioeconomic divide and the combination of these divisions, with environmental constraints, will have a profound impact on human security. The dangerous response to the prospects of mass migration and radical social movements is to attempt to maintain control without addressing underlying problems. Instead, there is an urgent need to embrace new concepts of sustainable security.}, issn = {1470-2118}, URL = {https://www.rcpjournals.org/content/9/2/108}, eprint = {https://www.rcpjournals.org/content/9/2/108.full.pdf}, journal = {Clinical Medicine} }
