Thank you @bsindia for using @DECCMA's findings. However, @DECCMA has investigated migration as a whole, of which only 7% (not 96% as mentioned in this article) have cited environmental reasons driving migration. Kindly rectify this.

Like #Satavaya of our #Mahanadi delta in India, citizens near El Max canal, Egypt, are being forced to move due to effects of #climatechange
@DECCMA we feel that provisioning livelihoods in resettlement sites is necessary for any resettlement project.
