The Dangers Of Living In A High Rise With Global Warming
House vs high-rise in global warming and climate change
Adam: Hi, my name is Adam. Im speaking to Steve Soreno, the author of the Global Warming Survival Bible, Surviving and Prospering with Climate Change. This is part of a series of questions on Global Warming Survival.
Steve, who is affected by global warming?
Steve: Everyone. There is not one place on earth that will not be affected. Of course some people will be tragically, affected more than others, but many will live safely, happily and will blossom. There are things that people can do now to avoid future pain and live blissfully in the future.
Adam: Can you give an example?
Steve: One of the countless things we recommend is that people avoid living in high-rise buildings. And the reason we say that is because weve seen - like millions of other people - what happened during the blackout of August 2003. And that blackout only lasted 24 hours. Now, high-rise buildings are heavily dependent on the stability of energy supply. Consider that global warming means higher temperatures, more pressure on the grid, disruptions in the energy supply and blackouts.
The North American grid, as an example is also very old which adds to the complexity. A 3 day blackout in the middle of the summer can create scorching temperatures in high-rises. Food rots and water doesnt pump to higher levels. These kind of problems are be far less difficult for people living in houses. And there are other reasons to avoid high-rises such as the scarcity of proper and sufficient storage and the absence of land. As disruptions in food and water supply will become common, people will adapt by creating stored provisions and it wont be long before we see many people changing at least parts of their backyards to vegetable gardens.
And this kind of adjustment will be very difficult to achieve for people living in high-rise buildings where food storage is limited and obviously, there is no land.
And this is just one of the multitudes of things that we researched and that people need to consider.
Adam:
Thank you Steve for that answer.
