I’m thinking of running off to the Canadian Maritimes, more specifically Newfoundland. Sure there will probably be hurricanes, but flooding shouldn’t be an issue with the elevation there. The main thing I’m concerned about is the gulfstream, if it collapsed I don’t know how that would effect the climate.

It’d be pretty fucking cold up there without the gulf stream I imagine

Some people think climate change means there will literally be no cold places left on earth ever at any point in the year

That’s what I thought too, but I’ve heard some say the gulstream actually pulls warm air away from the East Coast. I’m not so sure. It’s a gamble.

nobody knows and people that claim that do want to sell you something

everyone was like “oh, the water? i don’t care, what’s that like 2 inches in 50 decades, whatever” as if there’s a law that says that we can’t have biblical fucking rains everywhere and have the flooding shit basically skip the whole 500 year underwater shit and do it now, we don’t know cause when incomprehensibly complex systems collapse whacky looney tunes shit happens; like how a lot of forest fires caused by rising temperatures are not caused directly by drier underbrush or w/e, but by the fact that some wood eating beatles fuck and eat a lot easier when it’s just a bit hotter so now a huge amount of trees are dead inside and when a fire starts those are the first to stoke it and so on

Sounds like a good reason to invest in beetle meal futures.

New Zealand. That’s where all the billionaires are building bunkers.

In reality it will suck everywhere, though.

New Zealand’s only quality that makes it valuable in a climate catastrophe is its isolation, certainly an island in the ring of fire that’s been heavily deforested isn’t the most environmentally sustainable place except for the fact so little people live there.
