As said, Capitalist Climate Collapse is worsening, if you could flee- where would you want to flee to? Where do you think would be safest and why? I know no where is/will be safe, every ecology is in decline and theres no safety from a global event, and humans are bat shit crazy and you can be eaten alive sweaty fascist chuds anywhere- but just play the game.
I've dreamed of WA state for along time, somewhere near Bellingham- far north(for being in amerika), it rains and there is fresh water, seems like the western fires aren't that bad yet between the coast and cascades. And being close to the Canadian border at least makes me feel like I could make a run for it and escape the US.
Rural Michigan is my choice. But I think it'll be too appealing once the water wars start. :this-is-fine:
Northwest U. S. is great and I wouldn't choose anywhere else, but yeah we're still fucked as soon as supply chains collapse and we need to rely on local farming (not happening) and the govt is still run by liberal fascists with no concern for a struggling population.
did some lookin around and Duluth is already prepping ad campaigns and have a couple city plan designs- 1 plan to accommodate 10k refugees into the town and another for 100k. Good to know!
I had high hopes for the US southern piedmont & Appalachia. Had's doing lifting there. The rising temps would drive increased rainfall and cloud cover, which would buffer out the increase in air temp. Make the region sub-tropical.
Unfortunately I recently read that when the arctic icecap is gone & the thermohaline cycle slows enough, that effect disappears and the whole area bakes with the wetbulb temp exceeding survivability.
That's super interesting. I don't know as much about it as you, but generally feel, for the northern hem, being below the 42nd parallel should be avoided... at least in theory
Yeah, that's a good rule of thumb to have. Fuck, I wish I had a better answer to the question, but all really I've learned is that rainfall patterns are going to go fucking nuts and the majority of the US is going to be much, much drier. Local access to a lake, spring, or well should be your 2nd priority long-term.
Think I remember reading someone on here say there's an area of the midwest that's pretty safe, right out of tornado alley range.
That's not really much to go by when the jet stream is like the wacky inflatable arm people.
the mountains are a good place to stay for now. They've actually become cooler, which leads to other problems, but for now is preferable to the unbearable heat we've had lately. Only issue is that they're in a pretty underdeveloped area and the indigenous people there probably won't take kindly to people moving in.
