First climigration

According to Official Guinness Records,

In 2009, Alaskan human rights lawyer Robin Bronen coined the term "climigration" to describe forced migration of people resulting from climate-induced ecological changes in a community's environment that severely impact infrastructure, such as health clinics and schools, as well as the livelihoods and wellbeing of the people residing in the community.
Bronen used the term in a report on Alaskan indigenous communities who were having to relocate due to climate change. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has estimated that there will be 150 million “climate refugees” seeking new homes by 2050.
