  1. How about doing a video about the most survivable places once the climate change effects REALLY start to bite? Places where temperatures rarely or never reach extremes and where precipitation rarely causes serious flooding, yet ensures enough water for human consumption and irrigation, not to mention extras like hydroelectric power generation.

  2. When all the beans have been counted, 'Murica (The US of effing A) has only one problem: 'Murica itself! Greed and Stupidity seem to have been your guiding lights for centuries.

  3. One might disagree with the "safe" aspect of the coastal areas of Washington State and Oregon. While they are in better shape than most regarding climate problems, they are prime candidates for geological upheavals. Earthquakes. According to this clip, 'Muricans seem to be almost flocking to the increasingly uninhabitable areas, i.e. behaving a bit like Lemmings. I wonder why that is?

  4. This is a fully one: You live in an awful place and are wondering what part of this awful place is least awful? The answer is simple: Anywhere OUTSIDE 'Murica is better, provided it is somewhere NORTH of 'Murica! Canada is probably considering building it's "Keep 'Muricans Out" wall. Then there is Northern Europe, which is at Canadian latitudes, anyway. 'Murica has been burning it's candle from both ends and now the candle is burned out. What to do? Like Churchill once said: The 'Muricans can be counted on to do the right thing - but not until they have tried everything else!
