I think OP is thinking more about personal survival rather than how to profit from an extinction level event....

  Seems so, but if the lemons are getting crushed through small fault of your own, does it hurt to make lemonade? It's an interesting discussion regardless. I don't know if we'll see an entire global collapse, but I think we'll see a lot of displacement that stresses communities already overly sensitive to migration. Not to mention the likely deadly impact on many people. That, to me, should be reason enough to act rather than ignore as impacting only "those people over there".

    >if the lemons are getting crushed through small fault of your own, does it hurt to make lemonade? If the things being crushed are what you need for basic survival, yeah sitting there with a lemonade stand is pretty stupid.

      I think you misunderstand my comment. Let's say you're doing your part, to some reasonable extent. But you only have one vote and the broader population votes for people that steer the country or world in less effective ways. The planet is going to warm despite your best efforts. Does buying cold-climate land that will become more suitable for farming food in the future worsen the situation or indirectly make lemonade from the sour situation?
