Nomad Century
Book • 2023
In 'Nomad Century', Gaia Vince explores the seismic consequences of climate change, particularly the inevitable mass migration of billions of people due to rising temperatures.
The book delves into the impacts of drought, heat, wildfires, and flooding on human habitats and argues that migration, managed correctly, can be beneficial for both migrants and host countries.
Vince draws on extensive environmental reporting and travel to the front lines of climate migration, offering insights into how these changes will transform food, cities, politics, and more.
The book is a call to action, emphasizing the need for planned and deliberate migration strategies while working to restore the planet to a fully habitable state.
