    It seems that nauru is mostly a high plateau: topographical map here If the sea rises by more than 20m it’s certainly a scenario where 1M wouldn’t do you much good either way.

    EDIT: If I were a Nauru citizen I still wouldn’t sell, certainly not for such a low-ball offer ^^.

    EDIT2: Corrected 10K to 1M, not as awake as I thought. Maybe not such a low-ball offer, but it would still be a matter of principle to refuse such an offer, more on ethical/dignity grounds than financial ones, certainly I wouldn’t expect such a decision to be unanimous.

        My dad, who has been to Nauru, pointed out that Nauru has basically no arable land. So the survivalists would either have to somehow have food imported from the other .5% of humanity that survived climate change, or eat seagull. It’s very reminiscent of the Masque of the Red Death. I guess since they’re EA heads they’ll even be taking lots of recreational drugs and having sex parties.
