Flooding is the most common and most costly natural disaster in the U.S., says FEMA. The real estate market is starting to include the risk in home prices.

The rain fell steadily at Curt Dyer's Miami Beach, Florida, home on a mid-July day this summer. He opened the door to the garage and pointed to the flood already collecting in his driveway. He said it wouldn't be long until the whole garage flooded.Even though he faces daily nuisance flooding, the 30-year Miami Beach resident said he is not considering moving. "It's paradise living here.

Jesse Keenan, associate professor of real estate at Tulane University, says these types of resiliency fixes, which are primarily available to the wealthy, create a game of musical chairs with home equity. "We anticipate a rapid decline in valuation," Keenan told CNBC. "Only the wealthy can afford to live, for instance, in high-risk coastal areas, because everybody else can't insure it and won't be able to get a mortgage."In fact, homes exposed to sea level rise sell for about 7% less than their unexposed counterparts, according to aThat discount jumps to 10% when the owner of the property is not living there.

A 2018 Insurance Information Institute survey found that only 15% of American homeowners have flood insurance. Keenen fears all this combined will lead to a situation where only the wealthy will be able to protect themselves from climate danger.

Rising home prices has more to do with it than climate change…

We deserve better fate !! We the group of Afghan interpreters and security guards are exposed to extreme life danger in Afghanistan and want immediate action for evacuation.

like CA...taxes are why only rich can stay

Stay? No they’re building more, buying up neighborhoods. Example: Miami little Havana. It’s elevation is 3 meters above sea level. Look into Miami and threats of rising seas. Don’t act surprised. environnement Miami

No I believe that’s is the politicians driving out people esentially gentrifying anything and everything they can

Spend less on War and more on Infrastructure that will help

Tariffs on imported goods could be spent on further improving the materials to build the roads and bridges while improving energy sources and materials sources to make the US more independent. Energy and material independence is key to success.

If you have to burn fuel such as a diesel engine maybe ammonia injection could help it burn cleaner. If you burn gasoline a small ozone generator could make it cleaner burning. And water cooled engines should be able to run on leaner fuel mixtures. Liquid piston engines are cheap

Biomass can be grown quickly to offset carbon emissions though carbon credits. A microwave system can make biochar and fuel to power a generator to run the system. Then an argon plasma reactor turns biochar into nanocarbon for many new materials and construction.

Many things I listed could be done by shifting oil subsidies away for alternative energy initiatives. Garbage could pay for the future of clean energy by waste to energy plants, recycling and biomass farming.

ClimateChangeHoax

Greening up buildings and roof tops could counter the heat island effect of cities. Black top could be made with graphene to conduct heat to run thermal electric junctions cooled metal pips carrying waste water to make electricity.

Complete BS

Tesla coils could be used to ionize a gas in a self resonating ion tube to generator power.

Carbon felt treated with graphene could be used to draw electrostatic charges for water splitting, charging capacitors and using pulses to rapidly pump electrons in dead rechargeable batteries to do work as accumulators.

Cheap energy can be had from beta voltaic cells that have high voltage electrostatic charges to split water for hydrogen fuel cells with out fission or nuclear waste in a self sustaining cycle that could last for decades or thousands of years.

Motors can spin from the power of magnets, Gamma rays could be used to activate a metal lattice for fusion to take place at low temperatures to boil water for energy using hydrides of nickel or in rare earths. Or mixtures of them with isotopes of hydrogen.

MEthane can be a stronger green house gas than carbon dioxide but it can be changed into methanol with a room temperature catalyst. A company can turn it into gasoline for a dollar per gallon. Green sources of methane could make green fuels that reduce heat.

If your living in a climate that looks like a desert but with a high humidity plants that draw moisture from air would be a good start. Bamboo and fast growing plants such as hemp would be ideal for a quick way to green an area. Water is more common than CO2.

'Tell me a story about water': How 1 simple question led to 1,001 answers about climate changeJournalist Devi Lockwood recently released her debut book, '1,001 Voices on Climate Change.' The story is the little humans are pumping massive amounts of water/steam into the atmosphere via the 460 plus nuclear reactors 24/7/365 and we all ah know that what goes up must come down P.S. Geology has been forensically defeated along with tectonic theory . The water in the Great Lakes came from 'climate change'....a melting glacier thousands of years ago.

'Climate Night:' US late-night hosts join forces to raise awareness to climate change - CNN VideoSeveral US late-night hosts united for a 'Climate Night,' focusing their shows on climate change. This took place during Climate Week NYC, a summit to promote climate solutions.
