And the states are using slavery to fight the fires. Welcome to hell.

      We take the existing metropolitan areas, confiscate the land in the cooler areas by the coast from the bourgeoisie, and build super dense housing in its place with decent public transit

        Yep consolidating populations is going to be necessary to combat climate change. Also we should have stopped building in flood and fire prone areas a long fucking time ago.

            I get so depressed if I'm surrounded by concrete and asphalt. An hour train ride to a crowded park wont help that. I really wish I could find a decent remote job. My only fear is I'd never see friends again.

            Yeah but developing suburbs in flood prone areas is still a problem. If we're going to build there it should take this sort of thing into account by building infrastructure with this in mind instead of subsidizing it with flood insurance.

        China has had success in reversing desertification over the span of decades. I suppose climate change could make it impossible but as it stands right now, reversing desertification can be done.

      You'd need to move people temporarily to the cities where rich people currently are fine and then pump loads of infrastructure money afterwards into areas like norcal to make them not hell for the people living there. With enough money the homes aren't really the problem, it's how these affect people who are largely responsible for US food production etc.

      Didn't that shit start from some stupid gender reveal stunt? If we had a socialist government those would be illegal.
