Please note: All members are strongly recommended to read the very detailed 2025 and beyond forecast and the 10 most important facts about climate change before reading any of the pages in our Members-Only sections. This will provide you with a basic understanding of the severity and seriousness of what we will soon collectively face in the near future.

Prologue

As of 2023, hundreds of thousands of intelligent individuals worldwide are relocating due to the intensification of climate change consequences. Between 2025 and 2030, millions of intelligent individuals are expected to migrate. Between 2030 and 2040, hundreds of millions to as many as a billion individuals are expected to migrate by 2050, as more people realize they live in climate change consequence "migrate or suffer and die" zones.

Below is essential information to help you avoid making serious relocation mistakes and wasting time and money. It is part of our online multi-page Climate Change Migration, Relocation, and Managed Retreat Guide. 

Some pages in our online migration and relocation guide require you to become a member for complete access. Still, membership is very reasonable and tax-deductible, and you get great additional gifts when you become a member. Your membership also helps our 100% publicly funded climate change think tank keep speaking uncensored climate change facts to power. Click here to see everything you will receive when you become a member.

This guide comprises several sections that provide critical information on climate change migration, relocation, managed retreat, emergency preparedness, adaptation strategies, and disaster recovery steps. To begin, go to the area of your greatest need, and select from the options below:

Introduction

Our online guide on climate change-related migration, relocation, or managed retreat was costly and time-consuming to create. Moving to a new location and getting it wrong will also be very costly.

Therefore, you want to ensure that you have all the best and most current information on climate change-related migration, relocation, or managed retreat before making that challenging decision. Accordingly, we strongly recommend using our website's extensive Members section to complete your climate change-related migration, relocation, or managed retreat evaluation. 

For example, our Members' migration evaluation pages will thoroughly explain the migration, relocation, and managed retreat map (just below). These pages have a six-page migration, land, and a home purchase checklist. (It took us four years and 17 weeks of staff travel at great expense to visit the many global warming safer areas to create a migration plus or minus checklist, optimal migration timeframes, and the other related migration information found in our comprehensive online guide.)

Currently, hedge funds, ultra-wealthy individuals, and investment banks are buying large amounts of land in many locations considered safer due to global warming. Prices are already rising significantly in safer areas with lower global warming risks as more people relocate after each new series of climate change-related catastrophes.

Worse yet, migration restrictions in many nations are becoming increasingly restrictive as more people migrate. Therefore, it is crucial to assess as soon as possible whether you, your family, or your business will need to migrate, relocate, or initiate a managed retreat in the foreseeable future.

And finally, we know of numerous well-informed climate change researchers who have already moved their families to climate change safer areas. When climate change researchers are already relocating their families to safer areas, it is a powerful warning that the consequences of climate change will become severe quickly, and you need to make the necessary climate change-related migration, relocation, or managed retreat evaluations soon.

The Principles of Managed Retreat

Climate change-driven migration and relocation are often connected to the concepts of Managed Retreat. There are numerous compelling reasons for understanding the principles of Managed Retreat, as outlined in the list of 10 questions on this page.

Although this article begins by discussing effective climate educational activism, the handout for politicians and local emergency services directors, located further down the page, covers seldom-discussed critical areas and factors to consider that can also affect your migration and relocation evaluation. (If you migrate to a place unprepared for these contingencies, you may not be able to get critical supplies when you need them.)

You will hear much about climate change-related Managed Retreat in the news as the emergency worsens. 

This page and the Climate Migration and Relocation section of our Migration, Relocation, and Managed Retreat Online Guide are essential reading, especially if you doubt that relocation or migration may be necessary for you, your family, or your business. 

Successful migration due to climate change-related consequences and accelerating environmental deterioration is complex and challenging. Before you decide to migrate, read the dozens of migration pros and cons and how-to tips in our online guidebook. 

Please don't get caught migrating to the wrong place. Educate yourself thoroughly on what we have learned after years of research, physical visits to many locations, and significant costs. 

"The wise will always see the patterns of the destabilizing climate or the worsening of the world's other crises a long time before the rest of the population. The wise will prepare their emergency supplies and the relationships they will need ahead of time so they, their families, and their businesses won't have to endure the worst of what's coming by being unprepared. 

The wise understand that an emergency is the worst time to find critical supplies and help because supplies quickly disappear, prices soar, and dependable outside governmental or non-profit organizational support occurs less and less frequently as the disasters grow in size, severity, and frequency." Lawrence Wollersheim
