Some people will become stateless, and will need to find homes in new
countries, while others will need to relocate within their own borders.
Researchers writing in Science today argue that it's time to begin
preparing the retreat of people living in regions that will become
uninhabitable due to climate change.
By preparing now we can manage retreat in as equitable a way
possible, and minimise paternalism and disruption to culture, according to
author AR Siders from the Disaster Research Centre at the University of
Delaware.
"People need to think about it right now," Dr Siders said.
