And how much more difficult it is for us to adjust to that change now. Even if the climate had shifted extremely quickly and moved inland 100 miles in 10 years, a tribe of hunter-gatherers or a herd of wolves can migrate 10 miles per year. That's about a quarter mile a day.
When you put down roots and build New York City, good luck picking back up and moving to dry land.

- wlesieutre 6y agoBig picture of climate change, agreed that food is a huge concern. Sea level rise in particular is an issue for coastal cities though.
