Climat asics sneaker e change could push more than 200 million people to leave their homes in the next three decades and create migration hotspots unless urgent action is taken to reduce global emissions and bridge the development gap, a World Bank reporthas found.The second part of the Groundswell report published on Monday examines how the impacts of slow-onset climate change such as water scarcity, decreasing crop productivity and rising sea levels could lead to millions of what the report describes as climate migrants by 2050 under three different scenarios with varying degrees of climate action and development.Under the most pessimistic scenario, with a high level of emissions and unequal development, the report forecasts up to 216 million people moving within their own countries across the six regions analyzed. Those regions are Latin America; North Africa; Sub-Saharan Africa; Eastern Europe and Central Asia; South Asia; and East Asia and the Pacific.In the most climate-friendly scenario, with a low level of emissions and inclusive, sustainable development, the number of migrants could be as much as 80% lower but still result in the move of 44 million people.

DAMASCUS, Syria -- President Bashar Assad announced his candidacy for the June 3 presidential elections on Monday, a race he is likely to win amid a raging civil war that initially began as an uprising against his rule. The statement, made by Parliament Speaker Jihad Laham on state-run television, was quickly followed by broadcasts of nationalistic music praising God. Assad - who has nike air max ruled the country since taking over from his father i adidas samba n 2000 - was widely expected to run for a third seven-year term in office, although it remains unclear how the vote can take place in areas engulfed in fighting. Six other contenders are in the race, but they are mostly expected to give the election a veneer of legitimacy, analysts say. Following the announcement, the state-run TV also ran a brief biography of Assad, quoting him as asking Syrians not to resort to celebratory gunfire and telling them that we are now in the atmosphere of democratic elections in Syria for the first time in its contemporary history. It was unclear if that was meant as acknowledgement that previous elections were not democratic.
