“I expect a semi-dystopian future with substantial pain and suffering for the people of the Global South,” one expert said.

I’ve been living in coastal Southeastern Texas for 44 years. Im 46. In 2017 my county rezoned us as a flood zone because of the Havey flooding caused all the poor planning. An entire section of the state reclassified because “interstate highway” needed to be bigger.
They’ve been building the same 50ish miles for at least 27 years. All they’ve managed to do is ruin what was naturally occurring barriers and eroded our ability to maintain habitation. Or to expect a reasonable ability to protect against a disaster.
We’re leaving 3.4 acres my grandfather bought in 1986, and gave my sister and I in 2007.
And that’s just MY story. We had 375 neighbors in my area and at least 30% have moved on since 2017.
And that’s just one coastal city, in one state, in one country, on one continent.
I don’t have a lot of fantasy about humanities future.
Can I ask where others are moving to?
I couldn’t possibly say…
My picks are Michigan, Minnesota ( because of the Great Lakes) and Alaska.
