The Great Displacement: Climate Change and the Next American Migration by Jake Bittle

dark informative fast-paced

3.0

I would recommend reading the first 75% of this book.  It gets quite loose and speculative at the end.  The first 3/4s of the book are case studies of communities in the United States specifically that have been affected by climate change.  The author typically outlines the disaster that occurred (some are fast like wildfires, some are very slow like bayou erosion), how the community was impacted, and where the residents were displaced to.

I found some chapters more engaging than others.  Perhaps because I've already read a lot about the Tubbs and Camp Fires, those chapters felt redundant.  But the chapters about Il de Jean Charles in Louisiana and water rights in Arizona were fascinating.  

This book is fairly recent and already feels out of date given the context of the LA Wildfires.
