The most habitable planet in the solar system is becoming increasingly less so. Millions of people will need to – and are already – leaving their homes in search of safer ones. Join me in one of over 1000 'ghost villages' in the Himalayas that are being deserted, as I try to understand its impact, and what might be done to slow down the soon-to-be Greatest Migration on Earth.
