    A new generation starts when kids are born. Thats about 20 years if you average it across the world. Maybe 30 years in North America. Not 60 years.

    I understand their situation very well. I used to have a home that was destroyed by a catastrophic natural event and I cant live there anymore because my home, cars and property are gone. Stuff happens. Im not looking for a scapegoat, you deal with it and move on, ESPECIALLY if its going to take 100 years to happen.

      “I moved neighbourhoods once, with an insurance payout. Why don’t these other people abandon their country?”

      Truly, you are an icon of empathy and understanding.

        You sure jump to conclusions. I didnt move neighborhoods. I lost a property in another country with two houses on it with ZERO insurance payout because the loss was due to a lava eruption. Total loss of property and my vehicles.

        I dont need empathy for a “disaster” thats going to take 100 years to take place. Thats ridiculous. I had no warning, they have 100 years to make a move.
