Scenarios about 'climate migration'
Climate migration refers to the movement of people due to changes in their environment that are primarily related to climate change impacts such as sea level rise, extreme weather events, and agricultural disruption. This phenomenon has occurred throughout human history during periods of significant climate shifts, but is accelerating in the modern era due to anthropogenic climate change. In alternate history scenarios, different patterns of climate change could dramatically alter human settlement patterns, geopolitical power structures, and the development of civilizations.
