Dave Lindorff sees a "silver lining" in the looming climate "catastrophe"

Excerpt from this piece:
Look at a map of the US.

The area that will by completely inundated by the rising ocean—and not in a century but in the lifetime of my two cats—are the American southeast, including the most populated area of Texas, almost all of Florida, most of Louisiana, and half of Alabama and Mississippi, as well as goodly portions of eastern Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina....So what we see is that huge swaths of conservative America are set to face a biblical deluge in a few more presidential cycles.
