Florida will experience the country's largest economic impact from climate change

In recent research published in Nature magazine, the fact of awakening is emphasized. At the moment, the impact of expectations on the Earth's climate change is that the ocean will rise only twice. This increase will raise the total sea level by about 20 feet.

Some conservative models even predict even a four degree increase in turning the Florida peninsula into a rounded small wreck

It is impossible to predict exactly when this will happen (mainly because ice melting is difficult to predict), but research will be conducted in 2100 if we continue to study the current fossil fuel usage trajectory Indicates that it may reach the level, this seems like a long time, but remember that the sea level is accelerating every year.

In addition to sea level rise, Florida will also withstand warm seas and strong storms from the dry season and endless forest fires. With this in mind, the research published in Science magazine last year showed that Florida is most likely to suffer the greatest economic impact of climate change, reaching $ 109 billion.

Another country closer to this level of loss is Texas, which is estimated to lose 10 billion dollars. In this survey, we investigate the GDP of each state and consider the overall loss such as agriculture and sightseeing.

Especially when you think of the president, he has golf courses and resorts and it will never be swallowed into the ocean. "High", "withdrawing from the Paris Convention" - All developed countries (except for us) agree to work to reduce carbon emissions and keep global temperature rise below 2 degrees

In response to this pain, we were also trapped in Florida Governor Rickscott. He endorsed oil drilling at Everglades and his term "climate change" and state environmental protection departments were somewhat reduced to his staff. The number of pollution prevention cases reported by the authorities has decreased by 75% since taking office.

Things are certainly dark, but cities like Orlando promise 100% renewable energy in 2050, and Scott is participating in a fierce Senate campaign this autumn, at least we are still sinking It is not.

The potential impact of Florida and its inhabitants is facing the challenges of climate change and sea level rise in the coming decades. Sea level rise in Florida has physical and socioeconomic influences, but its severity depends on sea level rise rate and the total number of inches or feet that rise. In the Florida climate change report 2009, the Florida Ocean and the Coastal Council conclude that coastal wetlands, salt marshes, and mangroves are all adversely affected by sea level rise, especially if restricted by the land side or its location I attached it. Just in case. There are no deposits or freshwater. Even if these natural systems are not constrained, adaptive capacity will depend on the speed and extent of the flood (FOCC 2009).

The future experience of climate change in Florida will be a glimpse of the future of other countries of the country. According to the survey results, "Even in the absence of heavy rain and storms, sea level rise is mainly caused by climate change, today more than 300,000 homes and commercial facilities adjacent to the United States are at risk of catastrophic floods over the long term I am faced. "It is a question. The cumulative present value of real estate risked in 2045 is estimated at $ 136 billion. This is a new housing crisis. On the other hand, if cities try to stop the flood, the tax is expected to increase. Miami Herald reported in the report that by 2030, the house of Miami Beach can pay a property tax of 17 million dollars to deal with the recurring flood - but by 2100 , May exceed $ 760 million.

Tourism is one of the biggest economic industries in Florida. In 2015, a record 106 million visitors visited Florida (about 5 visitors per resident) and had an economic impact of about $ 90 billion. The tourism industry also provides additional benefits in the form of taxes to federal, state and local governments (consumption tax, consumption tax, income tax, property tax etc.). In Florida, there are over 1 million work in the tourism industry, 1.5 million indirect and supply chain work. Three industries or projects most affected by the tourism industry and currently experiencing significant growth in the state include leisure and hotels (hotels, restaurants, museums, amusement parks, entertainment facilities, etc.), transportation (cruises, taxis , Airport etc). And retail (gas station, retail store etc). Around 106.3 million visitors will include approximately 92.12 million non-state visitors, 39 million Canadian visitors, and 11.2 million overseas visitors.
