It isn't just coastal towns.It's flyover land too.
Our insane federal flood insurance programs pay people to rebuild in floodplains to flood again. Climate change is making the floods more severe, gonna get a lot worse enough with this one already Pay them only if they move to high ground. Or back to Detroit. I don't think we will see the reality of climate change priced into the FL real estate market for another couple of decades at least, as we won't be seeing much of the sea level rise effect for a while. I'm expecting my next 4 or so decades to be able to stay here safely if I choose to. But I'll watch public awareness too. If reality ever does return to the Republican Party, they start looking at facts there could be a panic sell off before the real effect/ I wonder what happens when the wall of lies breaks, when this red county has to reconcile with the lie, that most of its tax base really is in fact slowly slipping away into the sea. ------------------------- "The truth is incontrovertible. malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is." -Sir Winston Churchill |
