Wild species, too, are escaping warming seas and desiccated lands in a mass exodus. Politicians and the media present this upheaval of migration patterns as unprecedented, blaming it for the spread of disease and conflict, and spreading anxiety across the world as a result.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e But the science and history of migration in animals, plants, and humans tell a different story.
