RE: Is a nomadic lifestyle the future?
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
Builders and tradespeople don’t appear from nowhere,
Many from overseas and will be deported.
obviously it’s not possible for people with kids in school or local businesses or a thousand different reasons…
Well, with teachers unable to handle classes now, it is only a matter of time until all the institutions move to AI teaching anyway, so then, home school for all!
and so maybe we’ll end up building houses and infrastructure that can handle floods and fires and hail and snow and heatwaves and earthquakes, etc etc
Not sure about earth quakes, but Cairns generally does pretty well after a cyclone. I remember my first one where I was walking waist deep in water, and then a couple hours after the rain stopped, the same area was dry again. But, the city has largely been built for it for years.
While cold here in Finland (getting warmer), it is pretty safe environmentally for now. No major earthquakes, no tornadoes, very few forest fires and none of note, and the animals are all cute and fluffy, with nothing poisonous. There is nothing to do here though. Welcome!
Honestly, I think you and your family are in a very good spot for the future decades. I definitely don't expect trees to crop up in the artic anytime soon... but land that might have been too cold for most of the year for crops might actually be viable in the coming decades... whereas I expect farming lands near the equator will have to constantly deal with droughts and floods.
The big thing about climate change is that cities will have to deal with weather events that they're not used to... so Cairns is used to dealing with cyclones, but maybe Sydney or Melbourne might need the same infrastructure in the coming decades.
I wonder if kids will eventually never develop a sense of humour if their teachers and all their entertainment is made by AI?
