Climate Change to Wipe Away $1.5 Trillion in U.S. Home Values, Study Says

Climate Change to Wipe Away $1.5 Trillion in U.S. Home Values, Study Says
Story by Nicole Friedman, Deborah Acosta • 6h

Climate change will cause a $1.47 trillion decline in U.S. home values by 2055, according to a new study from climate-research company First Street.

Rising home-insurance costs and more homeowners spurning some risky neighborhoods will drive these declines, First Street said.
 
The study is an attempt to quantify the economic risk that weather events such as hurricanes, drought and heat waves pose to many Americans’ biggest financial asset—their homes.

Thousands of displaced Americans are currently contending with the fallout from recent natural disasters including this year’s wildfires in Los Angeles and hurricanes that ravaged the Southeast last fall.

By means of shrewd lies, unremittingly repeated, it is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell - and hell heaven. The greater the lie, the more readily it will be believed.

The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.

Are they saying my home will suffer damage from things like rain, snow, sleet, ice, daily temperature changes, sunshine, wind, blowing dust and dirt, bird sh*t, land erosion, and poor maintenance?  I thought that happened with, or without, climate change. :whistle:

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

"Climate change will cause a $1.47 trillion decline in U.S. home values by 2055"

I won't be around in 2055, but this is a GOOD THING.

We NEED to see home prices decline -- by a BIG amount.

It's called "affordability", and there was a time, up until about 30 years ago, when housing was much more reasonably priced in relation to buyers' earning power.

I'm not afraid of deflation.
