There are a fair number which won't; "mobile" homes are not designed to the same durability standard that a permanent home is. That's reasonable for an RV that actually needs to move from location to location, but means you're taking significant added risk for one which sits forever in one place.

Climate Initiatives Fare Well Across the Country Despite National Political Climate
(insideclimatenews.org)
The problem here isn't that models are wrong or inadequate, but that FEMA, for political reasons, has based its maps and risk estimates on historical averages, and those don't adequately capture the change we've had, or relatively low-probability events.
Sure you can. It's a matter of using modeling to estimate its probability and then planning around it. Californians have done a planning exercise around a storm somewhat worse than the 1860-1861 storm sequence for exactly this kind of reason.
Potentially well above. School shooters kill a few dozen at most. If the far right goes ahead with their violent fantasies, the death toll could be a million plus
For sure, but it could be slightly less dire if a lot of states were able to somehow implement climate policy despite a Trump administration effort to maximize fossil fuel extraction and consumption.
Every country needs to go to zero emissions, and Brazil is big enough to matter. Its fossil fuel use has been modest, but deforestion can tip the Amazon from a rain forest into a dry savanna, killing off all the trees, and releasing the carbon they presently sequester.
By the time people like you and I are totally sick of a topic, it's just starting to break through into mainstream consciousness.
The retired general isn't selling a book; Bob Woodward, the journalist who helped expose Watergate decades ago, interviewed him and is selling a book.
The retired general who said this isn't making a profit; Bob Woodward, the journalist, is the one selling the book, not the general.
The military doesn't have the same latitude to criticize the President like this that the rest of us do. He can't legally say stuff like this until after retirement
Kinda sorta; you'd still have some probability of a storm developing, so what they're doing is comparing simulated weather weather in worlds with and without the added greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, and asking "how likely is this to happen" and seeing that there are differences between the two situations.

That's an inherent problem in any capitalist economy; competitive pressures mean that the owners are always trying to push down wages as much as possible. Without unionization (and few of the clean energy companies are unionized) there's very little to resist it.
