About This Book

A speculative political and scientific narrative that follows public debates, lectures, and on-the-ground episodes in American and British settings as a significant alteration of ocean currents produces alarming forecasts and forces authorities into drastic measures. The text moves between argumentative encounters, investigative accounts, and vivid scenes of preparation and panic, depicting how scientific prediction, political calculation, and public sentiment collide when environmental change demands mass relocation. Interwoven chapters present contested evidence, logistical challenges, and the spectacle of evacuation, examining social reactions and the mechanics of removing populations from threatened regions.
