climate change: lol I’m going to erase Florida.
Insurance providers: 👀
As I understand it, insurance providers are already leaving and their role is now done by basically a government run socialized insurance.
I’m honestly baffled Disney hasn’t just… up and left. They could literally buy the entirety of bumfuck, middle of nowhere, and stick disneyworld there. The loss of tax revenue bought in by tourists would have to be a serious hammer to wield against Florida
Beyond Disney (and universal?) It’s just… beaches, boomers, and golf?
Knowing Disney I wouldn’t put it past them already scouting out regions. Takes a while to find enough land that can host all of what they need to run the park.
zoinks! s-s-s-socialized?!
DeSantis and anyone who follows him really are fools. Same with the Trump fans. Fools. There is no other way to put it nicer. I hope the smart people in Florida step up and make some noise, but they are probably busy moving out.
It’s such a missed opportunity. Climate change could be used as a blanket excuse for a boon in technology, construction, transport network development, urban redesign, an agricultural revolution and all the investment, tourism, etc that would come with that. Adapting our communities and ways of life toward a sustainable world could be an awesome process and something to celebrate. Any politician that sees this and runs with it will look like a hero for relatively little effort.
They wouldn’t be heros to their donors, who have a lot invested (literally) in keeping things burning (also literally).
Don’t you love it when the universe gives you the perfect gift.
Love it! 😄
Fucking glorious.

It’s only fair. After all, climate change is going to erase Florida.
My first thought as well.
Reality kind of has this way of not giving a fuck about politics.
Edit: (tap for gif)
Democrats need to begin to understand that even if they don’t think they’re at war, Republicans do. They should start fighting like it.
The only good thing that could ever come from climate change is Florida being flooded out of existence.
@GlennicusM @ProdigalFrog Perhaps, but then we’d have a bunch of displaced legislative malefactors infiltrating other state governments
But that’s all right cuz they’ll just sell their homes to aquaman.
The free market will just make living there unaffordable because it cannot be insured anymore.
Without dikes, levees, and a proper system to alleviate water issues, Florida will return to the sea. And Florida man will have to move elsewhere.
What could go wrong it’s not like Florida is at any risk for damage from rising seas right!?!?? Right!?!?!?
They’ll just blame it on wokeness
