Cities Prepare For Future Influx Of New Residents Fleeing Climate Change | NBC Nightly News

[chaunceychappelle]

She's the kind of person, thousands of years ago, that carried us to where we are now. Read the signs; move appropriately. Great interview.

[KitEKat-iovu]

I completely understand the reasoning here. I really enjoyed living in Asheville before I was transferred.

[oscarowski]

Hopefully some GOP politicians will have to move too, finally realising that climate change is not a hoax.

[Squidward]

Maybe Ashville is not a good place to move to escape climate change:(

[jpk]

They’ve certainly changed Eugene - not for the good. It’s more crowded, more cars, less bikes, and more gross McMansions in our forested areas- after they cut all the trees of course. We get the CA transplants who can work remotely and cash out on their houses.

[runner]

Come to Minnesota Minnesota nice land at 10, 000 lakes big pines plenty hunting and fishing logs to build a cabin

[martinwinther]

Internal climate refuges in the US. And shes one of the lucky. - What have we done to mother earth??

[stevenboldt]

Check the water level in Lake Powell, Utah and Lake Mead, Nevada. It does NOT look good. I'm in Vegas but I might be heading back to the Great Lakes.

[davidellis]

Might want to reconsider a move to an urban area like Toledo !

I already live between Milwaukee and Madison, WI so I'm thinking I should be ok.

[wvmann]

It starts with common sense. Turn the light off when you leave a room. Recycle metals. Use reusable bottles. Food shop at farners markets. Compost your food waste. Use logistical common sense when you run errands to put less miles on your car.

[robertcancro]

Glad I moved to this area so much better than 30 years by the coast... It is however is a major change from the beach... It is 86 for the high in the summer..

[aarononeal]

If you are look for away to help the environment you can use ecosia they are a search engine that plants trees

[chungaum]

Sadly I think the chance of countries rich and poor cooperating and sacrificing for the sake of the planet is a shot. Layer in we need corporations to work together as well and she makes more sense.

[jckorn]

Same reason why people leave California after a big earthquake.
Simple risk management.

[rockerchick]

Newport Beach, California to Park City, Utah. 898 miles

[laurienyeoakes]

Buffalo? Ok. They got 10 feet of snow in 3 days

[danrich]

Duluth has the best tap water in the world.

[bargdaffy]

If too much of the population moves to particular cities, that alone is going to stretch all kinds of community resources including housing and food prices. Look at Boise ID, it is a definite effect.

[yoshit]

Asheville is a dump. It used to be nice
