Fairbourne on the Gwynedd coast - Chris Andrews

BBC Radio Wales - Our First Climate Refugees

The story of Fairbourne in Gwynedd, a community on a deadline.

Fairbourne in Gwynedd will probably not exist in 30 years. By then it will be abandoned to the sea. Climate change threatens the town's future - but it's having a very real impact on the present.

This might well be a global issue, but for this Welsh village it's a very local one. Meet the people who've been dubbed "climate refugees" and find out what it's like to live with that label. 

A story of confusion, concern, and an idea of home.
