This account provides a profound exploration of the rapid decline of the world's natural resources and its impact on millions displaced from their homes due to war and conflict. Drawing from interviews with 110 refugees who arrived in Europe between 2015 and 2018, along with observations of refugee camps and urban slums, it sheds light on the harrowing experiences of leaving home, crossing borders, and attempting to settle in Europe. The narrative contextualizes these personal stories within the geopolitical and economic forces that have dismantled their countries in pursuit of dwindling natural resources. Throughout their journeys and resettlement, refugees face ongoing victimization and exploitation, as their presence often becomes a source of profit. Despite a demand for their labor, they encounter a European social climate marked by intolerance and stigma, which hinders their integration and threatens their safety. This work is relevant for students, academics, policymakers, practitioners, and volunteers in the refugee sector, as well as aid workers and social planners, offering critical insights into the challenges faced by refugees in a changing climate.
