It’s estimated that nearly 5 million people have been displaced from their homes in the past five years because of natural disasters triggered by the climate crisis. As people are either forced to leave or choose to relocate, many cities may face challenges with infrastructure and gentrification.

Cities Prepare For Future Influx Of New Residents Fleeing Climate Change | NBC Nightly News
Might want to reconsider a move to an urban area like Toledo !
@Randall Johnson but no hurricanes and droughts
What climate change 🤣 American love being feed bs
What are you, like 10?
So you like that China are the biggest polluters? 😅😅
@Aisha with an Eye a 10 year old should be able to look at the tables and see the climate has not changed 1 degree in over 70 years.
Climate Change
The made up catastrophe used by globalists & socialists to instill fear and guilt to tax, regulate, and remove our freedoms while pretending to be saving the planet.
Fake news.
Be Well Everyone.
Have some pudding…
I completely understand the reasoning here. I really enjoyed living in Asheville before I was transferred.
Yeah I would tell people don’t move to Madison. It’s fine but already so many people moving here from other places every year.
@Chris Anderson
I loved living in NC. There was so much to do, beautiful scenery and great places to hike. I left in 2001.
We have to make sure everything is a crisis
@Brian Nave That’s a perfect definition!
@Brian Nave EXACTLY. Lies, lies and More lies from those at the top, as usual.
@Brian Nave Would you rather live in a lake?
@Y E
The Arctic ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarcer….Whithin a few years it is predicted that due to the ice melt the sea will rise and make most coastal cities uninhabitable. – The Washington Times, 1922.
They’ve been trying to scare you for almost 100 years.
@Brian Nave It is a real threat though, and with these recent occurrences, it’s almost irreversible
Fear propaganda
No it’s time to realize what’s up
Yep, they’re good at that. Inducing the Spirit of Fear.
@Jane Seamore what can you look at to see if this climate change is real? The temperature hasn’t changed 1° in 100 years.
Nuclear Power = clean Power
Duluth has the best tap water in the world.
What state has the best tap water?
The state of Rhode Island has the cleanest natural environment and tap water in the United States. The population of nearly 1 million people is the luckiest in the states.
Which states have the dirtiest tap water?
Louisiana has the dirtiest natural environment and tap water in the USA. In addition, the state ranks low in education, infrastructure, economy, and health care. It could be one of the main reasons for the neglect of the natural environment.
What city has the cleanest tap water in the US?
A city named after the golden city of a legend in ancient Latin America, City of Eldorado Springs in the state of Colorado has the best and the cleanest tap water in the USA.
What city has the dirtiest tap water in the US?
There is no “single dirtiest tap water city” in the USA, but Arizona and California generally have a high pollution level and some sources state that the city of Fresno in California has the dirtiest tap water in the USA.
Is it okay to drink tap water in the US?
It is safe to drink water in the USA, thanks to the regulations imposed by the US Environmental Protection Agency, the law enacted is the Safe Drinking Water Act.
Papacy LauDato Si promotes Sunday Rest for nature, solution for the climate change and environmental crisis. Dont get the Mark of the beast which is the SUNDAY LAW which a FORCE Sunday worship/rest/false Sabbath that whoever will not comply will be persecuted, cant but or sell or be killed. Papacy is the 1st beast of Revelation 13 and beast of Revelation 18 and 4th beast of Daniel 7. America (2nd beast of Revelation 13 will form an image to the 1st beast and as a lamblike beast with 2 horns (separation of church and state that will unite) and will speak as a dragon through its LAWS. FINAL test in this last days is worship and loyalty to God. TRUTH vs ERROR. TRADITION vs SCRIPTURE. Exodus 20:8-11 REMEMBER the Sabbath day to keep it holy. SABBATH He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. Sabbath is SATURDAY not SUNDAY. Learn more about Sabbath at Sabbathtruth.com
They are moving to Minneapolis. More Crack and Ketamine there
Yeah, let’s talk about ignoring the problem instead of fixing it. Such idiots.
Buffalo? Ok. They got 10 feet of snow in 3 days
Oakes also..?
No one is really doing this
Well …summer is near here…and dems need more votes…open the climate/race border flood gates!😂
Race relations in the US is a problem that’s going to destroy this country if people like you keep ignoring it.
I see it as a push to reclassify illegal immigrants into clima-grants…sounds much more merciful in libs eyes
Ah what about all the Illegals coming up from Mexico. USA eventually will be a 3rd World shithole
You mean the phenix condo wasn’t a 20 year investment, maybe ill try Vegas 😉
@pastor chris ok son . God forgives you . But your bs is wasted , get a real job
@pastor chris https://youtu.be/IUK8emiWabU
@pastor chris in the old day , the church stored good in times of plenty and dispensed them in times of want . They got very rich and powerful with this investing strategy 👏 👌. But times of want can still happen
@pastor chris you can blame whomever you want. But if you worked hard , it’ll taste sweet
I’m scared of the cold
More BS yet again… the sky is falling… let’s move again and screw up another town with your dime store degree! Oh that’s right , it a science consensus, of bozo’s.
Environmentalists truly believed and predicted that the planet was doomed during the first Earth Day in 1970, unless drastic actions were taken to save it. Humanity never quite got around to that drastic action, but environmentalists still recall the first Earth Day fondly and hold many of the predictions in high regard. So this Earth Day, The Daily Caller News Foundation takes a look at predictions made by environmentalists around the original Earth Day in 1970 to see how they’ve held up.
1: (1970) “Civilization Will End Within 15 or 30 Years.” ………..
2: (1970) “100-200 Million People Per Year Will Be Starving to Death During the Next Ten Years.” ………..
3: (1970) “Population Will Inevitably and Completely Outstrip Whatever Small Increases in Food Supplies We Make.” ………..
4: (1970) “Demographers Agree Almost Unanimously … Thirty Years From Now, the Entire World … Will Be in Famine.” ………..
5: (1970) “In A Decade, Urban Dwellers Will Have to Wear Gas Masks to Survive Air Pollution.” ……..
6: (1970) “Childbearing [Will Be] A Punishable Crime Against Society, Unless the Parents Hold a Government License.” ………..
7: (1970) “By the Year 2000 … There Won’t Be Any More Crude Oil.” ………..
How about getting away from the violence in the democratic states that are causing riots and mayhem. Businesses are being forced to close, bankruptcy and ACTIVIST of BLM AND ANTIFA. If you live in a rural area, you can grow your own gardens, have a little farm and be self sufficient. Hopefully in a small town where people take care of one another and really care about their children, community and family
Amen. Living the simple, rural life would be awesome.
Ignore this advice. Safe rural areas don’t need folks moving there and turning them blue with the insane politics they bring with them after forgetting why they moved.
@Salty Soldier you are right, the democratic states vote for BIDEN and then move away because of the socialist policy and violence they created. Millions of democrats are moving to Florida and Texas. Hopefully they remember and redeem themselves to vote republican next time
Go vegan
Can we decide who will be driving the war rig in advance. Maybe also start planning routes to avoid the buzzards.
She’s the kind of person, thousands of years ago, that carried us to where we are now. Read the signs; move appropriately. Great interview.
They’ve certainly changed Eugene – not for the good. It’s more crowded, more cars, less bikes, and more gross McMansions in our forested areas- after they cut all the trees of course. We get the CA transplants who can work remotely and cash out on their houses.
As someone who lived in Eugene in the 90s and has lived around Asheville since 2001, I have seen this, and fear its increase now more than ever.
ASHVILLE?? Or Nashville???????
Asheville, NC
We will die if we rely on the politicians and greedy corporate capitalists that profit from the exploitation of our planet and pollution. They reap the profits end society bares the cost. Systemic, fundamental change through socialism is the only answer. Put people over profits or die.
Climate change has happened since the beginning of this planet nothing new here
Check the water level in Lake Powell, Utah and Lake Mead, Nevada. It does NOT look good. I’m in Vegas but I might be heading back to the Great Lakes.
You think that is climate change?
Better do it quickly. I checked house prices in Cleveland. 400k and up near the city center. Seems like just a few years ago it was half that.
Hopefully some GOP politicians will have to move too, finally realising that climate change is not a hoax.
Nothing can really be done besides possibly reducing the global population by 80%. Deal with it. Move to the Great lakes region. It will boom.
Cannot run from The almighty wrath !! We all have to take his punishment, even The eunuch prophet Daniel had to go into captivity in Babylon, as a nation Israel was punish
Its so easy by MSM to manipulate nice people about so called climate change.
US President Joe Biden should have apologized first at the World Climate Conference. Because America was the first to pull out of the treaty. Deepika is the root cause of all the unrest in the world. Israel and various countries in the western world. The world is declining day by day because of them
Displaced locals by raised rents in their “over thinking” after all what good is great weather around nuclear plants & military targets, SMH!.
😂
Ashland although at a higher elevation- will suffer from some effects of hurricanes, and inland flooding. Ashville will also see a huge increase in heat by the early 2030s. Actually moving south of 40N is risky now.
Can”t really make sense of you; is it your geography or spelling that sucks?…
@G G Yes- I would consider relocating to areas at or north of 40N-less heat.
@adamff280 My undergraduate minor was in Geography. Now a question- what is a Cfa climate? Why is 1.5 C above the preindustrial level in global temperatures going to be ‘bad’. What was the ‘average C02 concentration in the atmosphere in every ice age and interglacial over the last 800,000 years?
@adamff280 and you know what sucks? You – you worthless right wing piece of crap.
@adamff280 North Carolina will be subjected to, the following as climate change worsens. 1. Increasing heat.
2. Drought. 3. Wildfires. 4. Inland flooding. 5. Coastal Flooding. The state has a score of 276, Florida is the worst state with a score of 308. The best state is Vermont, with a score of 30.
Really? The MSM said they were going to do this specifically to scare people to drive up ratings. The crisis is the actual MSM iitself creating a crisis for ratings.
You majored in swallowing stupid right wing conspiracy theories, didn’t you? Ratings will come no matter the story…that’s why there’s and “news division” and an “entertainment division.” One of them is compelled to deal totally in facts.
This a joke????? Media is lying people are LEAVING cities i know cause the rural areas land is going like hot cakes and land prices are going up. FAKE MEDIA LIES
Makes no matter where you move
reporting from high up in the blue ridge mountains .. and wearing a mask. So annoying
I don’t think people understand its global
Its perfectly fine here in Washington state.
No person with any brains would move because of climate change.
Same reason why people leave California after a big earthquake.
Simple risk management.
That whole northern region is actually going to get colder and more severe, weatherwise, over the next few years.
So enjoy the cold
That’s not what the scientists are saying. They expect ohio to have the climate of northern Louisiana in 30 years.
Americans moving to beautiful cities in the mountains. More citizens…more houses needed building. Which means…chopping down those beautiful forests. Which means…you just contributed to more climate change.
You played yourselves climate change activists.
Don’t be so negative. Things change. Btw previously uninhabited areas in Canada will be beautiful and enjoyable to incoming residents.
Well good for them. Hope you like the snow during the deep freeze.
So… Only ashville isnt gonna freeze? Whats your point?
@Rolin Maiz I live in Asheville. Snow is fairly rare here. They’re still talking about a blizzard in 1993 – which is the last time we got a major blizzard. The winters are temperate and the summers are relatively mild. If we’re lucky, it will snow once or twice a winter.
Don’t come to West Virginia. We don’t need you.
Hmmm…Never waste a good crisis
Internal climate refuges in the US. And shes one of the lucky. – What have we done to mother earth??
We’ve returned the buried carbons to the atmosphere where they once were. Just move.
Nothing a little population control wouldn’t handle.
Asheville is a dump. It used to be nice
WE DIDN’T LISTEN!!!!
Lions, tigers & besrs oh my
Yeah don’t move to Madison, WI. Lived here my entire life and it’s 100 in the summer, and -10 in the winter and getting worse thanks to climate change, with so much snow every winter.
On top of that we already have so many people from the ghettos in Chicago and Milwaukee moving here shooting up a storm and drug dealing cuz they don’t get the same kind of heat as in Chicago, so it’s not as safe as it was 10 or 20 years ago.
Add on top of that all the people moving here from California and the fact that we live on an Isthmus where there’s no parking or new space and rent keeps getting higher each year.. Madison not the best city to raise your kids anymore.
These people do realize scientists have proven, one volcanic eruption ruins 25 to 30 years of climate change prevention. God knows what he is doing to keep the universe in order. These people shouldn’t worry. I do believe in not littering and cleaning up after ones self.
Actually, the city ppl are coming to the country, and now our rent has increased 30%. It is really unfair.
📌We are raised from birth to believe things that cannot be proven or that are plainly not true. People will often brag of their honesty, when there is so much they have simply chosen to ignore or leave unexamined.The fact is, we are terrified of the truth.”

Excuse me?!!! You mean every time our climate changes we are suppose to flee our home nation??!!! That is moronic.
40% of world’s population lives on a coastline. Add city’s such as New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Miami that will have a big problem within 50 year’s.
Rising ocean levels are completely overstated. Much of the earth is going to get hotter and more humid, soaking up most of the excess water. Florida though will have far too many hurricanes for meaningful living.
🐂💩
I guess California Oregon and washington will be empty soon.
I’m moving to Portland.
You can’t run from your fear, only face them.
Yes they have ruined our town.
Bunch of rich yuppies raising land prices for the locals
We hate them
“Woman moves to Asheville.” Good story 😂😂
Newport Beach, California to Park City, Utah. 898 miles
No where is safe away from the Force of Mother Nature. Just accept it, alright! 🤷🏻♂️
Fish carbon stabilizes our climate. Without a living sea we will die, but know one wants to talk about that. Science and human greed will end life on earth. Mother nature will adapt we will pass.
Nothing matters more than maintaining and protecting the Ocean systems. If you want to address climate change protect the ocean leave it alone! stop killing for profit.
We are deforesting are oceans to become a wasteland
Propagandist liers . I’ve been fishing of the coast of california at the same place for decades water is right where it’s always been . Don’t call me stupid
Sadly I think the chance of countries rich and poor cooperating and sacrificing for the sake of the planet is a looooong shot. Layer in we need corporations to work together as well and she makes more sense.
Flooding = climate change (this is not a lie)
So lester needs to go back to school to learn the difference between a black parent and a white parent and a mixed child since my other half has 6 mixed grand kids
The US and China can work together on shared challenges like global health security and climate change. J.Biden.
Biden’s Climate change policy stops keystone pipes running across Native Indian land.
Unless you’re Native American, you came from someplace else. B. Obama. When was America great?
Run the pipes across Mar-a-Lago and Ivanka’s new property. Frack off Traitor Trump !
Congratulations to the Biden/Harris team for rejoining the Paris accord. When was America great?
Start filming Fire Karens and there will be Less Fires.
Offer Payment initiatives for Dobbing in Arsonists !
Lu sè Changcheng (Great green wall) can be seen from space. The US gender reveal party fires were seen from space.
China reduced desertification by 2000sqkm per year and planted 30 million hectares of new forest in the last 5 years.
Buffalo????!!!!! Wretched winters!!!!
Bill Gates says we need to innovate because brute force decarbonization is too expensive. Yet if we look at the budget for NREL, the premier USA organization for renewable R&D, we see their budget changing little after agreeing to Paris:
https://www.nrel.gov/about/business-volume.html
I think we are not mobilizing to innovate because we do not know how.
I think we should be looking a frameworks that have the US and others mobilizing to innovate to reduce climate change. There is one YouTube video that shows an example of this:
Then their morons bc people are fleeing the cities according to the data.
lol total bs
Why the denial?
Glad I moved to this area so much better than 30 years by the coast… It is however is a major change from the beach… It is 86 for the high in the summer..
Climate is controlled by God..you can run from the weather but you can’t run from God
Hydro electric dams cause climate change.
From policy genius- North Carolina is not the best place to live as climate change worsens. The Media fails to get the facts right. https://www.policygenius.com/homeowners-insurance/best-and-worst-states-for-climate-change/
I wish this story would have been well rounded- with so many white climate escapees running to the hills, it’s negatively impacting the people who have been here for generations and who can no longer find affordable housing. I’d love to see a redo on this story to highlight the negative impact climate escapees are having on the actual community who soon will not be able to afford to live in the town they were born in.
You need to lock yourself into a mortgage and quit complaining. Capitalism baby!
watch
why climate change is important and our responsibility 😡😡😤on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUPqrD9dBxo&t=18s 🌳🌱🌎🌍🌧️
If you are look for away to help the environment you can use ecosia they are a search engine that plants trees
Oak Ridge Tennessee is a good place to move. I am 1000 feet above sea level. That should keep me OK for a while. And you can get a nice house here for less than 200,000.
Excuse Class 101.
Why didn’t you get dressed today?
Climate change.
Why did you have a car accident?
Climate change.
Why didn’t you pay rent?
Climate change.
Why didn’t you go to work?
Climate change.
Why didn’t you go shopping?
Climate change.
Why did you steal?
Climate change.
And the list goes on and on.
It will not matter where you live once Climate Chaos destroys our ability to Produce, Distribute and Store Grains and Vegetables at Scale and Scope and the population slowly starves to death, Civilization will collapse, have you taught your grandchildren how to Hunt? The Hunger Games begin!
There are already enough GHG’s in the Atmosphere and Ocean to increase warming for Centuries, we need Carbon Direct Atmospheric Capture technology at Scale and Scope, which is an Enormous $20T Initial Global Investment. Even Going 100% Green doesn’t solve everything, just the Input.
If too much of the population moves to particular cities, that alone is going to stretch all kinds of community resources including housing and food prices. Look at Boise ID, it is a definite effect.
The forests around Ashville are going to burn also, It is only a matter of time, the Earth has been made too hot by man. No place is safe.
I already live between Milwaukee and Madison,WI so I’m thinking I should be ok.
Buy more property.
Oh GOD, too funny it is 8/20 and Ashville area just had horrific flooding wiping out an entire county almost.
