- Season after season, extreme weather bombards the continental United States. Over the next 83 years, its cascading effects will force U.S. residents inward, upward, and away from newly uninhabitable areas. But don’t worry: We’ve mapped out how these factors will alter the country’s landscape in 2100.

I've ben saying this for years. I'm from Michigan. The state is camped out on the worlds largest supply of freshwater. I'm not a betting man but I would wager everything I have that there will be mass climate migration to the midwest within the next 25-ish years.
We're better of by following what our climate leadership do ... th-cam.com/video/dZvYHt_3nt0/w-d-xo.html
No don't come to Michigan, it is horrible here. Total swamp land, stay away. Only bad things will come to you, yeah totally. The natives definately put a curse on this peninsula. For your safety stay away.
You forgot entirely about Alaska.
The permafrost is melting, so large areas will become unstable.
And putro rico
Alaska already has a lot of mosquitos for some reason, so I guess longer Summers will mean more mosquitos for them. Also, probably more exploding methane hills like they have in Siberia.
@@victor.rivera9817 Puerto Rico will probably be more flooded
@@victor.rivera9817 Puerto Rico is already collapsing into the ocean.
michigan already has record flooding mixed with failing dams + michigan already has tornados that would get worse... but this entire video needs a rewrite and popsci is too proud to delete it, which is somewhat entertaining
since when did michigan have tornados
@@deliciouswaffle5767 we have them, but they typically aren't as strong as what you see in the plains states. Our siren went off 5 days ago.
It's interesting that the country will be getting drier and mosquitos will be expanding their range.
lol
You neglected to add more severe winter weather in some areas, including Michigan. There's no "safe place" anywhere in the US.
Yes, Civilization needs a stable climate to survive. Now on earth that's no longer a guarantee. You do the math.
So michagin, Maine, and Montana are fine but everywhere else is fucked? GREAT!
*stands guard at Michigan's southern border*
"Hello sir. Driver's license?..... i see you're traveling from Virginia. Well I hope you feel at home here.
Driver's license?..... Ohio?..... Get back over the f'n border"
I don’t get how you can compare mosquitos to the same level as wildfires, sea level rise, & hurricanes/storms
Disease outbreaks
@@theanonymouscommenter5608 Didn't the Gates foundation found a solution that reduces the Mosquito population over 90%?
I love that they didn't think California would deal with droughts
I mean they won’t. Lol
More accurate than ever! July 2021
Wow, I didn't know Mexico was an ocean...
So live in a houseboat on the Great Lakes...
Should've extended the flags into Canada in case people foolishly believe Canada would be unaffected.
What about the southern michigan border acts as a repellant for disease carrying mosquitos? I mean, I love michigan too, but I'm curious if there actually is any science behind this map
The Mosquitos in Michigan have been horrible!!
Pop. Science has now become cereal box entertainment.
So I live in Duluth MN, nobodies seems to care about this city but I got a heart on the map hellll yeah
CANADA needs to build a Wall...
I moved to Detroit from Silicon Valley 5 years ago......I love it. Now I feel like a visionary! ;-)
I thought we only had 12 years left? Wait a minute...
Duluth MN for the win!
I think I have better chances of surviving the Zika virus than downtown Detroit. I'll stay put.
Michigan's a pretty big state and Detroit crime is over-sensationalized.
Downtown Detroit is way better than the rest of Detroit
Yeah, it's actually mostly nonpopulated forrest. Grand rapids is a very nice place to live I hear.
I don’t think I can survive a flood and a hurricane
you're an idiot
I need citations for the info you present here - what paper or papers did you use?
I knew Mich.is great!!
You bet it is and after living here the majority of my 67 years I'm not going anywhere. Moved away 2 times and came back again. Just don't bring more people here we like it just the way it is now.
Move to Milwaukee, WI instead and help spread the burden of paying our outrageous property taxes.
Seems more like you should be moving OUT of Milwaukee if that's a problem.
mosquitoes in arid areas, 100% legit.
And sea level rise in New Mexico and Arizona smh.
You obviously don't know a fucking thing.
@@joshbanker8743 um sorry to burst your bubble buddy but six fucking feet rise in the sea levels is not realistic. The worst case model shows 55-88cm.. that’s not even 3 feet 😂🤦🏻♂️
DETROIT FOREVER
Hey Canada!
Chicago, Dallas and Las Vegas seem to be a pretty safe bet as well.
Water supply will be a major issue with Nevada.
Save yourself a minute and a half and move to Canada
No
What about Alaska?
Canada, here I come.
Oh wait, I'll be dead.
Bye future people!
You still there?
Unfortunately, I'm still in the same location I was four years ago, but also unfortunately this video has been quite correct.
Although I don't think a pandemic was in their thoughts when making it, either.
@@ShinRyuuk
Me too. I’m just trying to not take life so serious.
North America. America is not just a country.
Funny...something on the news recently kept pointing north towards that area
Hehehe this music is cute. I already live on the eastern side of Wisconsin, so I should be good.
The lesson is large bodies of water stabilize the local climate, so we need to build more artificial lakes.
Sure glad most of my family lives in the water belt. Move to the Soo. It won't be much different than it is now.
If sea levels rise could the same happen to the great lakes surrounding Michigan 😧
MI has a higher average elevation than places on the coast. It just doesn't seem like it because it's mostly flat. They will likely be OK, as the video points out.
There have been some coastal erosion in Michigan along the great lakes, but it won't be as bad as sea level rise from the ocean.
Aren't there the Niagara falls sort of isolating the lakes from sea level changes to the ocean? Or is that not quite how it works?
@@fcdraw There was a city name Lion city and it sink 1959 and it came up to the sea level rise.
[citation needed]
Umm. I've seen the mosquitos in Mich. I'm pretty sure there are way fewer in the NW comparatively.
Pacific NW resident here. We get tons of mosquitos.
I live in maine...im all set 😂 no need to move!! Lmao
As a lifelong Michigander who’s trying to leave the state, I find this video biased and frustrating. We’ve certainly got problems that will be exacerbated by climate change. Those disease-ridden misquitos? Will DEFINITELY reach the Great Lakes during summer. Rising waters? The entire state is a peninsula and people are already having to arrange moving out of their homes and away from the Lake Michigan shoreline because of increased erosion. I used to own a home near the lake and now a nearby street which parallels the lake is a walking path because the rest of that unpaved road fell off a cliff. The roads??? Don’t even get me started. The climate makes our roads deteriorate crazy fast. Typically within five years many roads deteriorate to the point where they need to be paved again. We’re also going to experience worsening winter weather, infrastructure problems like natural gas, power, and water management (i.e. 2019 polar vortex) and severe storms. This isn’t the “climate haven” people make it out to be. Maybe it’s more habitable compared to the rest of the country but probably not by a longshot.
If homes were built with steel and concrete instead of wood and other light materials, they will survive hurricanes and tornadoes. So that reduces the number of affected areas. I live in Puerto Rico, my home is a two-story concrete and steel structure with aluminum windows and doors, flooding doesn't affect me, and I have survived many hurricanes since 1977, including Irma and Maria in 2017. I can also collect enough rain water to survive any droughts. I never get snowed or hit by tornadoes.
So move south east to Puerto Rico before 2100!
BTW, my skin is so thick that mosquitoes cannot "bite" me (actually they don't "bite").
Spectacular!
What is the point living in Michigan? I stick to Niagara Falls and Buffalo New York!
I'm already safe ;-;
#MichiganProud
Like a famous fishing hole. If I tell where the best place to be is, it will ruin it with a surge of people.
Too late. we closed the bridge.
Somehow, they put the "wave" icon, indicating coastal flooding, on the Mexican border too! Do they expect tidal waves of Mexicans across the border?
fun fact molst of the mexican border is determined by the rio grande, a big river
A year ago this was just a comment. Today it's a prediction.
I still have Life and Look magazines from the 70's that claimed the USA would be 50% covered with ICE by 2000!!!!! Same idiot scientists(???) are still around being the purveyors of patent medicine.
@@peteluetz2586 Scientists are smart, the journalists who report about them (and usually miss the point) are sensationalist.
I like that they didn't think that California would deal with fires. And rising oceans would take out parts of the Central Valley.
Yay I’m countrie is the only place safe on the map witch is Michigan!!!
Sea rise in New Mexico?
Sit down
The problem is that there is no increase in hurricanes reaching landfall or in their intensity as more than a dozen studies have shown. Michigan is beautiful but as the Maunder Minimum effects add up, it will be too cold in Michigan to get into those lakes. As the great Canadian glacier begins to move toward the environs of Toronto ..... There's no way the sea level will rise anywhere near what the writer produced as the result of some bad dream.
Yawn, another Ice age douche bag. Let me guess, you get all your info from 2 ice age you tube channels? Loser
Too cold? Lmao. In my dreams.
Oh Jeez. I would rather drown. Michigan!!! Been there ... a hell-hole.
Of course this all goes into the toilet if the gulf stream stops or slows. Then Michigan will be under ice and South Carolina will become Vermont (sans syrup).
I am sooooo excited. Salt Lake City will become beach front property. 😊. Who knew. Thanks !!!!!
yeah, but you won't be able to enjoy a beer, so what's the point?
Well...at least Detroit will finally see some growth again hehe
For once, a reason to stay put in Minot, ND. Ha!
Those Great Lakes "safe" areas arre infested with Lyme Disease ticks already! LOL!
Yeah, but this is a relatively minor issue compared to other places. California and Florida will be largely unlivable for example.
>Channel name is Popular Science
>Posts video containing no scientific data
comedy gold
What do you want them to do, have a 5 hour long video breaking down the nitty gritty of scientific papers? Like shit, I agree that'd be cool, but this is "Popular science", it's meant for easy consumption.
Zanman is another low info idiot who thinks that there is still something left to debate about the topic and is naive enough to think it could be debated on youtube.
It’s called POPULAR science for a reason. Popular meaning that the information is easy to access and understand by the common people.
@@MajoraZ Popular Science is not accurate and is meant for easy consumption because it sounds cool (That's also why it's popular), not because it's accurate. You also don't need to spend 5 hours reading a scientific paper to be accurate, you can spend 5-20 minutes talking about a topic from a variety of sources and linking them below so people can read them if they want to.
@@legoshaakti I suppose but they are not entirely accurate as they are often dumbed down and simplified and some of the important information and context is lost. Also, the original commenter is right, the poster did not link any sources to the information they got. I'm not saying they are necessarily lying but it would be kind of nice to know where they got that information from
Well see ya in 2100 michigan.
I've never been to Michigan in my life. It doesn't matter anyway since I will be long dead by 2100. Actually, I won't be alive in 2050 either. Might make 2040. 2030 is in doubt but possible.
I live in Michigan. Great place to be if you know where you are!
Angst1966 just remind your kids to move their families to Chicago, Detroit, Dallas, or Las Vegas.
@Not Sure Thanks but I have no children. No wife either. Just me.
And Wisconsin
Literally tho
Looks like that America is no longer a superpower in this fictional scene. It will be fictional if we protect the earth.
Just shut up and tell me where to move.
Move to Greenland. You might want to start investing in Greenland real estate now, while the price is good.
@@donmeyers3090 Get professional help.
Please rename your magazine to "Popular Sociopolitical Science Commentary", in order to avoid confusion. Thank you.
I understand this is serious but six feet is not realistic… 55-88cm is not 6 feet
I see Wisconsin is one of the safe places. If its so good, did you ever wonder why it’s the “drunkest” state in the nation? Getting “shit faced” drunk is the state pass time. Possibly its the only way to tolerate living there?
No we just like to have fun
The Great Lakes won't rise?
Joshua Boucher no they are 200-600 feet above sea level
Exxon for President in 2020.
Oh Wait they already have their guy in the office.
Your videos deserve more views.
Some happy shiz there
Oh hell no.
Oh my God!!
Nature really hate us Americans XD, well I guess will move America to the moon and call it USA number 2 jk
Yes Michigan, but not Detroit. Of course Americans will look hungrily at the great northern expanses north of Michigan.
Arch Simpson Actually the Detroit Metro Area is a very attractive urban/suburban city.
@@notsure6187 I was under the impression that most of Detroit was razed slums.
Miami will long gone
Move to Canda. That's the solution to everything.
You can't even spell the name... Illiterates are not welcome here.
Can’t wait too move to my brand new home in... detroit
Detroit in 2100. What will it look like then compared to now? Detroit now is better off than it was 10 years ago so it will probably be a good place to live in by 2100
Michigan? Um, no. Flagstaff, now, or Arvada...
I say British Columbia
Did you note that the best places to live free from the worst climate changes is in areas adjacent to the Canadian border? You know that there is a whole country larger than the US on the other side of that border and it will be spared the worst that Mother Nature is likely to throw at North America! I'm just reminding you in case Michigan gets too stressed from overcrowding.
Come on kiddies, if you are serious about reversing this, then please ffs learn about nuclear energy...the only readily deployable zero carbon source there is that can meet the need fast enough.
Well, forgot that the Northeast seems to be getting a lot more snow during winter, so I don't think it'd be the ideal place for human beings.
Chicken Little at its best.
Where is the data that any of this is true? It's all just speculation.
I gave up on science after the scientists did.
Well, I won't be around, so ...
Michigan u wish
99.9% of germs - gone.
0.1% of germs - this video
don't care, for in 2100 I would be...…. 155 years old kiddies, sorry won't be around for THAT not even close....bye and good luck to the inhabitants of this world in 2100, IF there still is a world!!!
Oh bummer since Michigan is the worst state in the whole world
This is a cult, but the maps were cute and the music was catchy.
Total BS
If you want to be taken seriously then don't present a patently absurd hypothesis.
Too much popular...not enough science. I'm still waiting for all the polar bears to die and the coming Ice Age.
I call it popular BS on climate change.
Move to Michigan? No thanks, I've been there.
In 2100 CE. Or is this from a religious source, therefore has to use a religious term, "AD"??
All BS
A.D.???? I thought this was a science channel.
That's just a common way of numbering the years.
Get a life fil..... Jesus was here 2018 years ago. That is when one was trying to change ones mind into the real Christan belief mind. The Lord is above us and will always be above us. The Lord Jesus is our superior commander and will always tell us what to do. Accept that fact. ..
Yes I am.
Like I care.
