Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: Scholars of climate change predict that global environmental conditions will deteriorate considerably during the 21 st century. What are the potential implications of this prediction for population migration? Climate change is an evolving phenomenon whose effects are not yet fully manifested. This paper seeks to gain insight into this question by studying the role of environmental change in human migration. Theoretical analysis suggests that in the face of environmental decline, people will decide to migrate from affected areas. The empirical analysis proceeds in two steps. The first step presents evidence from three case studies on migration in which environmental decline played a role in the population movement: internal migration in the United States during the 1930s, internal migration in Bangladesh (East Pakistan), and migration from Bangladesh to India since the 1950s. The second step of the empirical analysis conducts a large N statistical analysis of the role of the environment on population migrations in the 1990s. The results of the case studies indicate that the environment has been a factor in migration. The results from the large N suggest that environmental factors affect Human migration. The paper concludes by evaluating the implications of these findings for policy making, and for future research.
