Adapt or Relocate: The Climate Imperative
The human habitability niche, defined by specific temperature and precipitation ranges that have supported human life for the past 6,000 years, is shifting away from the equator towards the poles. This transition means that many people in the US, particularly those in the southern states, may need to relocate to more hospitable climates in the north, such as Vermont, Michigan, and upstate New York. It is estimated that approximately 160 million Americans could be affected by this change as they face the challenges posed by climate change, leaving many vulnerable and requiring significant adaptations.
