I am in no worry or fear of climate change water levels disturbing me..
My altitude is perfectly fine...
The icecaps can ...and will prolly go....and it won't disturb my place in the slightest.
I am on an island ...yes...this island is not at water level...
There are perhaps a few homes on it that may be in threat...
But not mine....
Most of this island is a hilly plateau ....
The uphill hike from the ferry is more suited to a mountain goat.
I will get the exact figures of the islands altitude ...and also exactly how high up I am as well from sea level...
But I have little to fear...I am quite high up...
And for many places farming in the future will indeed be a problem
..
Yet again...the changing climate is expected to grace the pacific coast of Canada with weather akin to what lovely weather California USED to have ...before their droughts...and fires...
At least that is how nice it is projected to be during the rest of my lifetime...
The price to live here will end up getting impossible to afford though...
I may end up selling in 20 years and moving further north up the coast....
It depends on a lot of factors...
I will be pushing to 70 then...
I may not even be alive...
So it is anyone's guess by then....
