“Across the climate frontier, and especially in rural Alaska, entire communities have already begun the process of relocating en masse. In the wealthy cities of the world, this undertaking inspires a profound dread. Miami has been elegized many times over. But the most vulnerable have no time for elegies; they are too busy with the real business of adapting to life on a changing planet."
