You 'Ain't Seen Nothing Yet!

For millenia, humans have flourished in a 'climate niche'. Far from 'keeping 1.5 (degrees Centigrade above pre-Industrial levels) alive', the world is on track to reach 2.7. This, of course, means that any semblance of a 'climate niche' will dramatically shrink in size (https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/may/22/global-heating-human-climate-niche). People exposed to excessive temperatures and extreme weather, will be forced to move. It's been calculated that circa 1 billion folk (nearly 13% of the world population), will have to migrate to cooler places or die. These cooler places will not be free, of course, from their own climate change challenges. The worst affected populations currently live in India and Nigeria. Migration is likely to prove challenging for all parts of our shrinking world. People who object to migration, need to think what they would do, faced with the challenges of folk living in parts of the planet becoming uninhabitable? Limiting the temperature increase, must be a real priority for everyone!
