Climate change is a fact and the resulting impacts are already being felt. The
droughts in California are very serious and the reservoirs that have been drained
are collapsing in on themselves are making the odds of reservoir renewal slim.
There are droughts and reservoir problems throughout the US but not in
Minnesota. The Western mountain range has been seriously depleted of snow and
ice causing a decreased water supply coming from those mountains as the
depletion continues. Lake Mead is at its lowest levels since it was built, see
(earthsky.org). Hoover's capacity is down 30% and more efficient generators are
being installed to help fend off the declining Colorado River flow. Minnesota has
huge reserves of good water in its lakes and reservoirs for the foreseeable future.
Sea levels are also on the rise. Miami recently spent millions on raising roads and
installing water pumps to keep the sea water at bay. Norfolk Virginia is also
having problems with high sea water entering lower areas. And it is noticeable
along the East Coast. The predictions for rate of ice melt on the planet is
increasing faster than was originally predicted and this may feed on itself further
increasing the ice melt rate. Estimates of sea level rise depends on what melts.
The estimates go from about a 2 foot increase if the polar ice caps melt to about
a 216 foot increase if all the ice melts, this would include Greenland and
Antarctica. (read article in Nat'l Geo Sept 2013). A recent movie the United
Nations Climate ambassador Leonardo DeCaprio narrates, "Before The Flood"
gives what I consider after all of my studies, a fairly accurate perspective of what
is happening in real time.
The water factors affect areas that are some of the most highly populated areas
in the world. What will happen when the reality really sets in and people start
bailing? The people and companies with vision and courage will leave first while
the property values are high and will set out for places that are more
environmentally stable like Minnesota which I would rank as one of the most
environmentally stable areas on the planet. True, we have four seasons and an
occasional tornado but seasons are great to experience and tornado risk is a
small price to pay to have this kind of safe environment. Ice melt will affect us in
many ways two of which I believe will be rising property values and rising
populations. It may be advantages to own property before any movement occurs
and as the local populations
increases so do the local markets for food.
