More on Climate hysteria. How soon will refugees from the Sunbelt migrate en masse to the Northern States? :marseybeach:

!ifrickinglovescience !physics !neolibs

Dramatard friends from Dixie :marseysaluteconfederacy: and the Sunbelt :marseybeach:when are you guys moving to Illinois and Minnesota?

I moved from TX to WI for this exact reason. And I'm not alone, as there was already a community of 'climate refugees' in the area, with realtors and other professionals knowing about this trend - which will only keep growing over time.

So Texans moving to Wisconsin are refugees? Lmao

Climate refugees have been in an exodus from Central America for a couple of decades. Katrina had tens of thousands of refugees leave NOLA nearly 20 years ago. People generally don't plan ahead or make active effort to change their status quo unless they are faced with difficult choices. As each disaster happens, there will be more "refugees."

!latinx

Why do you think we're receiving so many refugees from central america.America.

Just wait until the water crisis in Mexico City really bites!

Central Americans are moving to the US because of Climate Change, surely there are no other reasons :marseysmoothbrain:. Funny they mention Mexico City when illegal migration from Mexicans is at all time low (most immigrants crossing the border are from Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua).

My husband and I are looking for property in Michigan. The climate was definitely a factor in that decision. I think a migration is already happening and will be a strain on many northern cities. I'm just worried that after a few more years of warming, AMOC will collapse and cause massive cooling in a short time frame. Dammed if you do and dammed if you don't.

RIP yankees and leafs freezing after AMOC collapses.

And of course some Florida hate

Not sure what the future brings but I'm in south Florida. The west coast of Florida was absolutely pommelled by hurricanes a few years ago. You drive there now and there's more houses than there were before the storms. Miami is sinking and homes are flying off the market. The only climate migration happening here won't happen for a while. I'm waiting for my kids to finish school to see where they end up.

It is a good thing you didn't use the phrase "climate change" or I would have had to turn you in to the governor of your state. /s

I believe it's “freedom weather”.

So witty :#soyjakanimeglasses: checkmate magachuds

Move sooner than later. I've debated leaving Ohio in the past but when the water wars begin this is prime real estate.

Lmao :#marseyimmortanjoe:

As a Canadian I wonder this because we have lots of water, cooler climate and not many people (especially in the eastern part of the prairies). Assuming at some point things will get bad enough that Americans will be fleeing up here.

>ice caps melt flooding the entire world

Shit movie with garbage soyence :sciencejak:

Even in the most delusional and apocalyptic scenarios of Global Warming it would take thousands of years for the Ice caps to melt. Not to mention it would only raise the sea level by 70 meters. The Antarctica ice cap survived the Miocene climate which was over 5 C above the 1850-1900 average (which we call “pre-industrial” temperature average)

What is the level-headed backed by modern science take on climate change?

Depends on how much the earth warms. The IPCC divides in several scenarios for 2100 (RCP 2.6, 4.5, 7, 8.5) which depend on CO2 concentrations

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17168683026253674.webp

RCP 2.6 would entail accomplishing climate goals set by the Paris agreement and using Carbon Capturing so CO2 concentrations are around 400 ppm by 2100

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17168683027491984.webp

This scenario is pretty much impossible. Right now we're heading towards RCP 4.5 (most climatologists believe that both RCP 2.6 and 8.5, the latter being the worst-case scenario, are likely not happening), though some climatologists like reddit's darling James Hansen sustain climate sensibility (temperature rise by doubling CO2 concentrations compared with pre-industrial baseline) is around 4.8 degrees celsius instead of 3C held by the IPCC modeling, is a fringe paper so far though.

Anyways, we're looking at a 1m sea level rise by 2100 (which will continue on the following centuries) in the absolute worst-case scenario. And a 0.5m rise by 2100 in the medium scenario we're apparently heading.

That's it? :marseysleep:

Climate change policy seems like another bootleggers and baptists story. Activists love the subsidies because government "doing something" makes feel all warm and fuzzy while businesses of course love the green subsidies.

Correction. 2.4 meters absolute worst (we're cutting emissions and RCP 8.5 is looking unlikely) if Antarctic ice melts in large quantities, plus continuous rise over the coming centuries but I guess no one cares if it rises 15 meters by the year 3000. So in that scenario parts coastal florida would get flooded but considering the US is rich chances are some sea wall like the Dutch have will be build before that happens.

The issue for Florida with sea walls isn't the sea level rise itself but what it means for hurricane resilience. The Dutch don't get hurricanes.
