Here's an uncomfortable question: What happens when citizens of cities impacted by global warming decide they want (rightfully so) to move to somewhere more habitable?
Wouldn't that disrupt the global economy?
Wouldn't a large sudden migrant situation disrupt the host country?
Wouldn't the world become more volatile as the new "oil" emerges: renewable electricity and water?
The upside is that there will be more green nuclear plants but to get there I see troubles ahead. The situation in Ukraine and heat problem in Middle East and Africa facing famine. All of this feels like it's snowballing to a potentially unmangeable situation.

But the worst outcome is not from humans, who can shield themselves a bit (insulated homes + heat pumps + p.v. for instance) but for natural resources, so far we have started loosing many fertile land and no new land arrive in substitute, actually we still need to eat...
