BREAKING: simultaneous freakish heat in the Arctic and Antarctic described as 'impossible' and 'unthinkable' by scientists as abrupt climate change accelerates wildly 🧵 pic.twitter.com/jGwovCRLeT— Ben See (@ClimateBen) March 19, 2022
I've been thinking a lot about where I want to live that's safe from climate catastrophe lately. New England or the Great Lakes seem to be the safest bet.
Appalachia will be alright too, real hot, but the mountains hold tons of natural reservoirs, there are like 50 giant state parks and nature reserves along it, there are several well forded and marked hiking trails (Mountain to Sea, Appalachian Trail) as well as the Blue Ridge the parkway.
The region is also full of old coal rail lines that can be repurposed and most of it is technically a rainforest, so lots of fresh water to keep the reservoirs going.
Biggest worry is a wildfire in one of the parks that gets out of control.
Only a handful of states are going to be inhabitable within the near future.

Looks like I should plan to move to Vermont
Unironically yes!

Eyepatch Bernie will save us right until the collapse of the Gulf Stream leads to a blizzard induced mass casualty event
At least the snowbirds and gusanos are fucked. Feel bad for everyone else in Florida though.
