Hey, so be careful if you're planning to move up north-up north.

The ground has started exploding in some areas that have permafrost, and some of the lakes are starting to release a lot of methane. Think Alaska and Siberia.

The weather is probably going to be fucky in one way or another everywhere you go. I don't think there will be an area that you can move to to really escape climate change. Wildfires are kicking the butts of many communities that are further north, and the winter ice storms that happen are pretty deadly too. I can't imagine that those things will go away or improve anytime soon, since they are heavily thought to be linked to climate change.

Some of the great lakes are so polluted now that the governments of both the US and Canada have recommend a safe yearly maximum number of fish to consume. The limit for at least one of those species is literally zero, due to how much fish absorb from the water around them. These are "forever chemicals" that are being absorbed.

We still need to try to work on climate change, regardless of location. I hope that people don't think moving north will protect them from the effects of climate change, because it probably really won't.

I know that you probably already know that, but I would like more people to see this stuff. I've seen too many people saying that they think just moving up north will make them safe from climate change.
