New Orleans needs to begin planning to move its residents out of the city due to climate change.

That’s the findings of a new study published in the Nature Sustainability journal, which points to historic evidence that suggests sea level rise will eventually leave the city surrounded by water, perhaps by the end of the century.

NPR’s Leila Fadel asked Jesse Keenan, director of the Center on Climate Change and Urbanism at Tulane University, and one of the study’s co-authors, if anyone is making those plans.
