I don’t know if it’s true or not, but I’ve read that when places become more temperate because of climate change, they’re still not very livable because there’s no soil capable of supporting crops.
It takes decades for the soil to get invaded by bacteria, grasses, shrubs, trees… but eventually they will get there. With a little human help, it can get done even faster.
The warming process is blazing fast on geological scales, but for example sea levels are not expected to reach the top of the Statue of Liberty for at least another 500 years, so on a human scale it’s more than enough time to build whole cities, generate fertile top soil, or to organize scuba trips to the 9/11 memorial and put warning signs at sub tunnel entrances.
imagine if the only food available was grown indoors
I was hoping when the world got too hot then Antarctica would become livable, but I might need to rethink my retirement plans.
Antarctica is still the expected mass migration target for the 23rd century, ozone hole or not.

Antarctica is also not a nice destination, because it’s constant night for half a year and day for another half.
I’m planning to move to Sweden when I retire. Of course, that will be a tropical climate by then.
People are buying land in Alaska for future vineyards.
Well, for half a year it’s fine, you won’t get any direct sun there.
