The global environment is suffering tremendously from serious challenges, which we are seeing today from hurricancs.

floods, heat waves and forest fires in var- pious countries of the world as a result of climate change.

countries around the world must work together to preserve the environment, not only for present generations but for future generations.

as a result of climate change.

we have a new category of migrants or.

as some call them, climate refugees.

who are these refugees? and what is the legal system that regulate them? and whether recent agreements address the problem of climate refugees.

all of these questions will be answered in this research.

it is important to identify these people and provide them with legal protection.

in accordance to available fig- user.

it is expected that the number of climate refugees will reach 200 million by the year 2050.

while others predicted the number will reach one billion by the year 2050.

it’s hard to estimate the number of current climate refugees however, the numbers are increasing due to climate change.

the current legal system does not apply to climate refugees, as the definition of refugees according to the 1951 refugee convention does not apply to them, and there is no clear definition of climate refugees in international law.

nor is there any international body that represent them.

it is expected that with the rise in sea level, many coastal areas will be sub- merged under water, and some island countries in the Pacific Ocean, such as Kiribati and Tuvalu, will be flooded with water and their inhabitants will not be able to live in them, and accordingly, the population will be forced to resort to other countries.

we arc facing a humanitarian catastrophe that must be confronted and avoided by reducing greenhouse gases, and this is what the United Nations framework conventions on climate change is working on.

analytical and descriptive approach has been followed in this research, and the most important results of the research arc: - There is no consistent and legal definition of climate refugees.

- The absence of an international agreement on climate refugees.

- The number of climate refugees is constantly increasing as a result of climate change.
