I wonder this sentence is correct or not, especially underlined part.


When regions can no longer produce food, people will be forced to move to other areas, making them “climate refugees.” = and they make them 'climate refugees' (?)

The sentence is OK. The implied subject of "making" is not explicitly present in the sentence, but the meaning is understood to be "the fact that people will be forced to move to other areas makes them 'climate refugees'".
