Central America’s Dry Corridor – stretching from Guatemala to Panama – is becoming ground zero for climate-driven displacement. As 2025’s relentless droughts wither crops, families are fleeing ancestral farms in what locals call ‘the great climate exodus’.
🌾 Key impacts this year: – Failed corn harvests threatening food security – Record-breaking heatwaves (45°C/113°F in Honduras) – 60% drop in coffee yields – a economic lifeline
With COP30 climate talks underway, community leaders are demanding ‘funds, not promises’ to implement water conservation projects and drought-resistant farming. 🌱
🔍 Why it matters: Over 10 million people depend on the Dry Corridor’s agriculture. Scientists warn the region could become uninhabitable by 2040 without urgent intervention.
"We’re not climate statistics – we need solutions now," says María López, a Honduran farmer planning to migrate north. Her story echoes across collapsing villages.
