"The EU’s asylum policies are failing. And conditions in Greece are so bad,
many desperate Syrians see no other option."

After World War 2 we all agreed to take better care of refugees so that we
would not repeat those mistakes. But the time has come to meet our obligations,
and we're not living up to those promises. Climate change and consequent fights
over resources - especially food and water - will probably lead to even more
refugees in the future. We must do better.

Cheers,
