more climate garbage from USA Today

Climate change is bad for everyone. But this is where it's expected to be worst in the US.


If you’re thinking about a long-term real estate investment or shopping for a place to settle down for 20 or 30 years, you might be wondering which cities or states could fare better than others in a changing climate.

“There are no winners in a world where climate change gets worse,” said Adam Kamins, director of regional economics at Moody's Analytics and author of a recent study on climate risks in the United States.

Climate change is ramping up the long-term risk almost everywhere, said Kamins and others. Temperatures are increasing. Oceans are warming, and rising. And scientists say the heat and higher sea levels help make some natural disasters more extreme.
-----------------------------------
East Coast: Wind, flooding and sea level rise stack the deck against many counties and states, especially Florida and the Carolinas, Kamins said. Bustling economies and distance to the beach still attract people in droves, but at some point the tide literally will turn against communities along beaches and coastal rivers.

Southwest: Heat and fire bring increasing risks, particularly in Arizona, he said, even without factoring in the perils of a dwindling water supply.

Interior: Intense heat may affect these states the most in runaway warming scenarios, Mann said. Sudden downpours with unprecedented rain also are occurring more often, even though these states aren’t in hurricane-prone coastal areas. One study he co-wrote showed some of the greatest risk of heat stress could be in urban areas in the Pacific Northwest and Great Lakes.

Idaho to Minnesota: A swath of states across the northern U.S. look better than most, with less-pronounced risks, Kamins said. Recent statistics on an influx of newcomers to Idaho and its burgeoning tech hub in Boise show people may be figuring that out. He expects Montana may be the next frontier within 10 to 20 years.

Yet I can get a 30 year mortgage for almost any beach property.

This must be why I see zero signs of climate change in Oregon. It can't be that the entire thing is a scam.

To statists, fear is the driver to achieve division and agenda. It is always the driver, but you don’t have to yield to fear if you don’t want to. THAT is optional.

Through out Earth's history, warm periods have been swarming with life, but ice ages produced mass extinction.

I read this last week and found it interesting. I know at least a dozen people (myself included) that have traded properties in South Florida for ones in Montana, Colorado, and Idaho. It started about 5-8 years ago.

Yet I haven't seen Obama put up his Martha's Vineyard mansion for sale yet....

The water would have to rise so much that the Gulf of Mexico reaches Arkansas before Martha’s Vineyard floods. I would bet his house is about 200 feet above sea level. It’s basically a mountain sticking 300 feet out of the ocean in places.

Climate Change - Global Warming is a population control gimmick.

The damn water levels haven’t risen a mm. These people are lunatics.

Coastal erosion in LA is one thing due to the levees built to contain the River.

The way these nuts talk, Miami should be underwater by now. The water line is the same it has been for hundreds of years.

Liberals are the worst.

Baw it’s called elevation. In Monroe County, Florida it’s an average of 3 feet above sea level. In Key West, Solaris Hill is a whopping 18 feet about sea level. On the island of Martha’s Vineyard the highest point is 300 feet and most of the island is above 200 feet.
Trust in God, but build your house on higher ground.

If climate change is so important, why is it that Obama's house on Martha's Vineyard, John Kerry's home in Boston, John Kerry's old home on Nantucket, John Kerry's newer home on Martha's Vineyard, Nancy Pelosi's home (at least this one),Biden's home in Greenville, DE:



Biden's beach home...



or even his old home in Greenville...



... none of them have solar panels?
