Climate Migration: Should I Stay or Should I Go?
Manage episode 408236784 series 40751
The places that most people call home are coming under increasing threat from climate change. From rising seas and more frequent floods to stronger hurricanes and cyclones, to more devastating droughts and wildfires, the most habitable parts of our world are becoming far less so. Over time, our cities will be forced to transform — and hundreds of millions will have to move.
People who have the means are already starting to relocate to places that market themselves as climate-proof. But not everyone will be able to leave. And many won’t want to. How do we handle the next great waves of migration?
Guests:
Abrahm Lustgarten, author, “On the Move: The Overheating Earth and the Uprooting of America”
Sonia Shah, author, “The Next Great Migration: The Beauty and Terror of Life on the Move”
This episode also features reported pieces by MPR reporter Dan Kraker on “Climate Proof Duluth” and KUOW Public Radio in Seattle reporter John Ryan on “How a Northwest tribe is escaping a rising ocean.”
