it only took us, what, 50,000 years to bounce back from a bottleneck of a couple thousand individuals to current day levels? climate apocalypse might destroy global civilization but maybe we'll balance out around a medieval era tech, surface-fuel life growing neocorn in Finland or something

I think I know what the answer is, but are there any plans to mitigate the environmental catastrophe from the ocean overwhelming miles of inland human settlements? All the landfills, the sewer systems, the industrial sites, the houses and retail stores, just enormous piles of toxic bullshit suddenly subjected to tidal forces?

what’s cool about the porous sandstone that holds Florida’s freshwater aquifer is that it can flow the other way so while the sea level rises and floods this shithole the water will also become undrinkable and sewage and drainage systems will start to catastrophically back up and spew their contents all over heavily populated urban areas that used to be swamp land

Like Elon Musk has to come up with a carbon capture ray gun or something.
