Speaking at the United Nations Climate Action Summit in New York City on Monday, Prime Minister Mottley delivered a stern warning to world leaders on the destabilizing domino-effect she believes these rising temperatures will have around the globe if greater measures are not taken to hasten the effects of climate change. "Make no mistake," said Prime Minister Mottley, "there will be mass migration by climate refugees that will destabilize the countries of the world that are not on the frontline of this climate crisis."

The National Press Club is located on the 13th floor of the National Press Building at 529 14th St. NW, Washington, D.C.
