Climate change is happening at different speeds and each country has its own policy. Therefore, we are relatively limited to develop a global understanding and to admit to ourselves: The heat that prevails in sub-Saharan today is slowly moving towards us, and all those who live there need a new place to live. We, and the politicians too, consciously push this realization away from us for the time being. We scientists must do much more to ensure that we are already feeling the consequences.
