TLDR the figure of 187m people being forced out their homes is inaccurate _so long as_ you don’t count people ‘preemptively’ leaving their homes as being forced out of their homes. Magic.
Sober scientific findings get less attention than alarming and far-fetched scenarios. That's how we ended up reading headlines about #climate change flooding 187 million people out of their homes. The realistic assumtion is less than 1/600th of that.https://www.wsj.com/articles/examining-the-latest-false-alarm-on-climate-11559256615 …

eh? Almost all of the 187 million will never have to leave — hence a wildly exaggerated number

Article is paywalled. What's your prediction for SLR over the coming decades? Mine is ~2.5 mm/yr with little or no acceleration.

It’s like the old mummy movies. The only way the slow, foot-dragging mummy could kill you was if you just stood there screaming or frozen in fear. The slow sea-level rise is the same kind of threat, if even real!

It’s not a question IF Holland will disappear but when! Rising seawater will affect salinity levels in rivers and groundwater, amplify stormsurges, increase riverflood waterlevels, etc. in Indonesia they think about tossing away Jakarta, land subsidence alone will do it etc etcpic.twitter.com/pjxKAcHbCT

Read peer-reviewed research instead of hyped headlines (point of my article) No, Holland is not going, as is pretty much no place No matter the sea level rise, at least 90% population will be protected and 96% of assets — likely much higher https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S095937801730688X?via%3Dihub …pic.twitter.com/b4rp5TFBPd

Trillions will be spent on this crisis. We can do it now or we can be in an even worse scenario if we do nothing

hahaha You're trusting the Pentagon? Please tell me how many military people you know that are extremely smart. Also, this is part of their never-ending campaign for bigger budgets.
