I want to plan for the effects of climate change. Where can I read what effects are likely to happen, when and where? I want to know what systems I can or can’t rely on, which places will be more hospitable etc.

I’d like something concise and accessible for a lay person. A short book would be preferable.

    Effects of climate change

    The thing is, you can’t rely on man-made systems when climate disasters hit your area. You have to be self-aware and self sufficient for a few days and cooperate with the people around you. You should also expect that no place is safe from climate disasters.

      Deserts and low-lying coastal regions are more susceptible, surely? There must be places that will be less at risk, even if not from human effects such as migration.

        Even at high altitudes, you are not safe from climate disasters, such as landslides, floods or the unthinkable like this

        it is very difficult to find a place that has a less risk from climate disasters. Even in places that are less directly at risk from climate disasters, we have to think about the impacts of crop failure, global famine or wars for water.
