More Signs that the Northeast Needs to Prepare For an Influx of Climate Migrants

I have been saying for years that America's north and Canada is going to see an iinflux of burnt birds looking to escape the devastating affects of Climate Change in the South.

A heat dome over Texas is pushing feel like temperatures to 120° F in the state. The Dallas Morning News is claiming that Texas will be the hottest place in the world for the next few days. 

Other measures are not only saying living in America's south will be unbearable, but impossible. Home owner's insurance is spiking in certain parts of the south. One woman in St. Augustine, Florida got a bill for $36,000 for her historic home.

Add that some insurers such as Farmers are leaving Florida. Similarly we are seeing other insurers refusing to underwrite homes in Florida and other parts of the south and even southern California.This does not bode well for housing and life in Florida and parts of the south.

The Question I have? Where are all these climate migrants going to go? Add that our southern borders are bursting with climate migrants from Central and South America. We have dilemma.

The heat brought by climate change is challenging farmers. It is also raising the cost of farm insurance.

I could go on and on.

Climate Migration is a problem that has been simmering for years and is now accelerating. The lovely life many of us in upstate New York and in other parts of the North have enjoyed is about to come to a thunderous stop.

Be Well.
