    Yes, these changes will pose large challenges in many areas, and it is possible or maybe even likely that some countries may struggle to adapt for various reasons. But collectively I think we already have to tools to tackle them and we will develop more as time goes on. I expect climate migration will look more like an extreme version of today where some governments break down due to various stressors, while others in the same climates and regions continue to thrive.

    If we could figure out better and more equitable ways to produce and distribute resources globally it is entirely possible that our future world could be more stable and prosperous than today, but that may be overly optimistic in the face of these challenges and powerful forces that seek to maintain our current exploitative economic system.
