    Consider the ages of those involved, they will be long dead of natural causes by the time the true “find out” stages of climate change has really gotten going. Also they’ve got wealth & privilege so will have the easiest time migrating to safer places.

Miami could defy the somewhat impossible odds and survive another decade before a hurricane wipes it out like Andrew did to Homestead. Yes bad things are starting to happen faster now, but we could have had another decade of some semblance of normalcy.
