Scientific American ran an article on a study suggesting scientists have found that climate change could empty some nations by 2100. Researcher Valerie Mueller was quoted on her analysis of the study saying, “[t]hey try to cast this paper as a way of thinking about not just human, but the migration of other species…[f]or birds that have very little costs in moving 500 and 1,000 kilometers [300 to 620 miles], it might work. But this framework for monitoring human migration doesn’t recognize the formidable barriers we [humans] face in moving.”
