The small island nations that make up the Caribbean are incredibly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. Many people and businesses are concentrated along the coastline, exposing them to intensifying hurricanes and rising sea levels.

This episode discusses these issues and others with Natalie Dietrich Jones, a migration expert at the University of the West Indies.
