This book sheds light on the complex and often harsh realities faced by individuals who are displaced due to floods, fires, and other climate change induced events 

• learned that flood insurance can get to $10-12k/year?!?!

Very good, but so depressing. Had to take it in smaller portions, but I would still recommend this book. Important information presented in a interesting way.

this was fww’s book of the year & honestly correct. really well done examination of climate “migration” in the US, which is pretty much skirted around in a lot of discussions. the gravity and expanse of it is rarely considered, and this book does a really great job of considering. as someone who has experienced through a few natural disasters and knows people who moved away as a response, it puts a lot of context on those decisions. great lakes region, here we go.
