Most of the growing US population centres are in places that are at the forefront of unsustainablity and climate change danger.
For the vast majorty, there’s just a complete lack of giving a fuck & zero real interest but just assuming things will be alright, no matter the evidence.
Another example, water issues and heat issues and it’s the second fastest growing place in the US. On another note, creating wealth is a proxy for destroying the biosphere and making an unlivable planet.
KYLE, Texas—People and businesses have flooded into Kyle, Texas, since the pandemic, making it the second-fastest-growing city in the U.S. The influx is creating wealth but also contributing to a big problem: Kyle is getting hotter and running low on water
But climate change can make living here brutal. Underground, the aquifer that Kyle relied on is shrinking. The city for three years now has had to buy water rights from nearby San Marcos to satisfy its growing population. Temperatures hit nearly 100 degrees before this summer even started, and drought conditions persist. People wear neck fans, limit outdoor time to early morning and nighttime, and keep their children inside.
No sane person would choose to move to Vegas. The heat and lack of water are ridiculous and it’s nothing but a giant monument to human stupidity and hubris… Yet here we are.
I can’t understand how anyone chooses to live in such conditions.
They can check out any time they like…
But they’ll never leave
