A great upheaval is coming. It will transform all of us and our planet.
In the next fifty years, higher temperatures combined with increased humidity will render vast areas of the planet uninhabitable for 3.5 billion people. Fleeing from the tropics, coastal areas, and once arable lands, enormous masses of people will need to seek new places to live. And if we are not among them, we will be among those who have to welcome them.
Migration is not the problem, but the solution: migration will save us because it is migration that has made us who we are.
