Human Activities Alter Earth's Tilt and 'Goldilocks Zone'

TL;DR Summary
Global warming is disrupting the Earth's "Goldilocks zone," the climate range that has allowed humanity to thrive for thousands of years. A new study warns that large populations are being pushed outside of their climate niche, while the risks of extreme heat events are increasing. However, the study also highlights that every tenth of a degree of global warming that can be avoided will help over 100 million people remain in a more favorable climate. Taking decisive climate policy actions can limit the human costs and inequities of climate change.
