Eh, the ocean taking Florida will be a net gain for humanity. I'm looking forward to watching all those republican voters lose their houses.

Anyone with half a brain was looking at projected sea level rise before buying a house, so... ya. Byeeeeee Florida, you won't be missed.

I get what you're saying, but I've lived my entire life in Florida and I've never been a supporter of conservative policies. I didn't vote for climate change and I'm certainly not in support of of repealing policies to at least slow it down. Me and my family are going to suffer from this just the same. I understand you want to feel the joy at the suffering of climate change deniers, but there's a lot of people here who don't deserve what we're going to get. A lot of us may not have the ability to just leave and go elsewhere and are going to suffer anyway. Unfortunately, the people who most deserve what they get have enough money to escape it and aren't going to suffer the consequences.

It's true. You don't deserve what's happening. You put up a good fight, and now you're hosed. I'm so sorry this is going to happen to you. I sincerely hope you find a way out.
