About
Climate Insurance Bonds
Financial instruments that allow wealthy nations to insure against the economic impact of climate refugees. Pay-outs are triggered based on the number of refugees entering the country, the resulting social instability, and strain on social services. The pay-outs are then used to fund increased border security, enhanced social programs for the existing population, and even, cynically, incentivized return programs to the refugee-source nations.
