Abstract: Where climate change wreaks havoc, human trafficking will follow. This piece untangles the ways that natural disaster, slow-onset environmental change, and modern-day slavery are already co-constructing cycles of suffering around the world. While the solution is not simple, there are some potential interventions that may help to mitigate the damage.
