We have true borders, not the imaginary borders that we've all invented, our geopolitical borders, but these true planetary borders. Humans can't live in large numbers in Antarctica and that's a harm and desert. And if you look at the map of the world, the continents are kind of ice cream cone shaped. So this is an extreme change that we're facing. The more habitable zones of the planet are the ones that hire latitudes.
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.
