Isn't the consensus that the Midwest/Great Lakes area will be hotbeds for climate refugees?
That's been a talking point of mine--inspired by an Averroes post--for about the past year. For probably unrelated reasons, Marquette in the Upper Peninsula already has a booking property market.
How bad are we expecting the climate to get in a place like Florida? I can definitely see the Southwest becoming inhabitable if the Colorado River finally dies up.
South Florida is one of very few highly populated places in the US where the main climate risk is sea level rise (and through that, drinking water depletion) as opposed to heat waves, drought, or extreme weather. Although it isn’t like unusually hot weather hasn’t already made an impact…
Gonna' float the theory that the unusually hot weather in 2020 exacerbated whatever anti-lockdown/"approval of 45's economy" R swing was already going to happen.
