Climate Change and Housing

I'm reading an interesting article in The Gambit. It's on the topic of climate change and affordable housing, a mix of topics that is rarely brought up. I find it a great article that is written in a laid-back fashion, which makes it easier, I believe, to delve into an area that could be overladen with numbers, theories, and charts.

Also, the article makes a provocative comment. At a meeting of stakeholders and business leaders a moderator asked the question, "How many of you think New Orleans will be around in 50 years?" and about half the room raised their hands. "Then he asked, 'What about 75?' and not a single person raised their hand."

That is amazing.
