The leaders of Kiribati and some other low-lying islands are facilitating the migration of their populations. So they are ensuring that young people are trained so that they can get jobs in sort of refuge nations. Other places like Bangladesh, which has also been experiencing a lot of migration internally and across borders, are also taking this very seriously.
In the second episode of Nature hits the books, science writer and broadcaster Gaia Vince joins us to talk about her new book Nomad Century, which looks at how climate change could render large parts of the globe uninhabitable, and how surviving this catastrophe will require a planned migration of people on a scale never seen before in human history.
