Migration
Resident of Hawaiʻi’s Climate Decisions to Remain or Retreat
The research publication examines the social and psychological factors underlying the decisions of coastal residents in Hawaiʻi to consider migration in response to increasing climate-related threats. Of the data collected, seven main themes showed across the majority of the interviews: rootedness, safety and security, uncertainty and fear, first hand observation of changes, solastalgia, distrust and resentment, and legacy.
