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.

Taking decisive climate policy actions can limit the human costs and inequities of climate change.
