Why is Oxfam campaigning on climate change when its an anti-poverty charity?
At Oxfam, we are passionate about ending poverty – yet our work is being increasingly undermined by changes in the world’s climate. For poor people, who are dependent on predictable weather patterns, the damage brought about to land and crops – whether by increased flooding, droughts, or rising sea level rises – can mean no food, no earnings, and no way to secure a better future.
