Findings; sense of Congress (a) Findings Congress finds the following: (1) In the second study of the Sixth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), issued in February 2022, the IPCC stated, based on scientific evidence, that the Earth’s climate is now changing faster than at any point in human and recent geologic history. (2) The Sixth Assessment Report of the IPCC and the Fourth National Climate Assessment, issued in November 2018, found that a changing climate is— (A) causing sea levels to rise; (B) contributing to an increase in wildfires and temperature extremes in some parts of the world; (C) contributing to an increase in heavy precipitation in certain locations; and (D) intensifying drought in many regions of the world. (3) Forced displacement and forced migration are increasing in the context of environmental changes and climate-induced disruptions, including weather-related disasters, drought, food insecurity, and rising sea levels. (4) In 2022, flooding events caused 6 out of 10 disaster displacements within countries, surpassing other types of disaster, according to the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre. Such events include— (A) the weather phenomena affected by El Niño and La Niña, which have recently led to record levels of flood displacement in many countries, including Brazil, Nigeria, Sudan, South Sudan, and Somalia
