On the Move: The Overheating Earth and the Uprooting of America -- Abrahm Lustgarten, Hardcover
"On the Move explains how we got here and where we're headed. It's crucial guide to the world we are creating." --Elizabeth Kolbert, author of Under a White Sky and The Sixth Extinction
A vivid, journalistic account of how climate change will make American life as we know it unfeasible.
Humanity is on the precipice of a great climate migration, and Americans will not be spared. Tens of millions of people are likely to be driven from the places they call home. Poorer communities will be left behind, while growth will surge in the cities and regions most attractive to climate refugees. America will be changed utterly.
