A lot of people live along the equator. Statistically nobody lives at the poles.
- eikenberry 7y agoObviously if the inhabitable region of the planet changes, people will eventually shift to live in those regions. So fewer people at the equator, more people living near poles.
- Eric_WVGG 7y agoThis has been on my mind for years. I don’t think Trump’s wall has anything to with the existing situation of migrant workers and political refugees, and everything to do with people like Bannon and Miller. Bannon's favorite book is this 70's chestnut called _Camp of the Saints_. I urge anyone who thinks the wall project is silly or pointless ("ladders > walls") to at least read the Wikipedia summary and get an idea of what kind of scenarios they're actually serious about.
- jacobolus 7y agoIt definitely won’t be a problem if 2 billion people become climate refugees and move to higher latitudes....
- eikenberry 7y agoNever said it would be smooth sailing. Just that over time, we'd adjust. But that time would be bloody.
