The problem with environmental scientists is that they fail to recognize just how much people and organisms will adapt to situations.
Sure, maybe some organisms will die out, but new exciting ones will appear to replace them. Humans will be able to start farming in Antarctica.
Some people's houses might go underwater but on some inland properties might suddenly become prime beach-front real estate.
Human population might drop, but then house prices will drop too!
It's not all bad.
- kazagistar 7y agoThat's not how any of this works. House prices will drop where people cannot live anymore. And scientists have accounted for newly opened land... there is less of it then what is becoming uninhabitable. Continuing climate change isn't some whimsical economic reorering, it's the largest genocide in history.
