Christian Navarro
Well, I guess I'm saying I like you, you like me.
- [00:15]
Harvey Guillen
He actually is too good to be true.
- [00:18]
Christian Navarro
This is a con. I'm conning you to get the Dalama painting. We could do this together.
- [00:24]
Harvey Guillen

Josh Clark
Welcome to Stuff youf Should Know, a production of iHeartRadio.
- [01:12]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Hey, and welcome to the podcast. I'm Josh Clark, and there's Charles W. Chuck Bryant. There's Jerry over there. And this is stuff you should know. Is it getting hot in here or is it just me edition?
- [01:25]
Jerry
Yeah, that's right. Well, you know what we can do? We can just migrate to another part of the I Heart offices here.
- [01:33]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah. Nice.
- [01:34]
Jerry
A nice, cool studio.
- [01:35]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah, they really do keep them cool, frankly. Cold.
- [01:39]
Jerry
Yeah. And this is. That's the last fun we're going to have on this episode because this is not so fun.
- [01:44]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
That is not true. There's plenty of places for jokes here.
- [01:47]
Jerry
Okay. All right, good.
- [01:49]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Do you remember we did one on Comas and we had jokes? So come on, we can do this.
- [01:54]
Jerry
Yeah, that's a good point.
- [01:56]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
So we're talking climate migration, and it's a really interesting topic. This was your idea, actually. And I tip my hat to you.
- [02:05]
Jerry
Thank you.
- [02:06]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
And I'm just joking. I'm not wearing a hat.
- [02:09]
Jerry
See? Another joke.
- [02:11]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
So the thing that surprised me. So climate migration, we should just tell people off the bat is where people have to move somewhere else because extreme weather, droughts, basically anything. Extreme temperatures, anything that has to do with climate change basically ruining where they live. That's climate migration.
- [02:32]
Jerry
Human wise.
- [02:33]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yes.
- [02:34]
Jerry
Like, there's an animal climate migration we're not even going to talk about.
- [02:37]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
No. And we did a whole episode on plant migration that was due to climate too. So this is. Yes, that was a good catch. This is Human specific. And one of the things that struck me about this is there's not a lot of, like, solid agreement on exactly how bad things are gonna be and exactly how far people are gonna have to move. And even among the people who do agree, the experts who do generally agree on some stuff, they're still like, I don't know that this is gonna be as bad as it's being portrayed, like, say, in the media.
- [03:11]
Jerry
Yeah, for sure. And, you know, we'll get to some studies and stats and things, but stats, you got to keep in mind, are kind of a guess, because as Libya points out. Or maybe we'll just talk about that when we get to the stats part.
- [03:24]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Okay. But I just wanted to put a. I wanted to put a lid on the hysteria because, like you said, we just don't know yet. And it might not be as bad as we think. There might be some pluses. There are definitely going to be some minuses, but it's something that we're talking about now, and it's decades enough into the future that we have time to prepare for it. It's kind of like we went from, okay, let's stop emitting greenhouse gases to, okay, it's too late for that now. We have to figure out how to deal with the repercussions of that. That's where we're at. But we have a little bit of time. And if we start thinking about and talking about how to do this smartly and responsibly without again becoming hysterical and over planning and overdoing it, we could. We could do this right. And make it as comfortable as possible.
- [04:09]
Jerry
Yeah. We being specifically the United States, because there are other parts of the world that are already sort of proactive, rather than kind of, like you said, being reactive and waiting. When potential refugees are just sort of at the border saying, like, we have no place to go, because our place almost said habitat. I guess humans have a habitat, right?
- [04:32]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah, sure.
- [04:33]
Jerry
Is that true?
- [04:34]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah. Every animal has a habitat.
- [04:36]
Jerry
Okay. I didn't know if I was being callous by considering us all just animals.
- [04:40]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Were you being a speciesist?
- [04:43]
Jerry
Maybe so. But if. Speaking of the U.S. you know, you do hear a lot of talk about that kind of thing, like, oh, people are going to be coming into our country. You know, depending on who you talk to in this country, some people might welcome them, some people might not. But as Livia is very astute to point out, generally what we're talking about nowadays, the more common thing that you're seeing is people don't Want to leave their home.
- [05:09]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah, that's a big point.
- [05:10]
Jerry
They'll move as kind of close as they can to where they're from rather than say, hey, let's just pick up and go to a completely different country where I know nothing about it and I don't speak the language. What's generally happening is if there's a climate issue, let's say, which could look like a lot of things, and we're going to talk about a lot of them, it could mean I just can't farm here anymore because it's so drought prone, or there was a. My coastline is disappearing or there was a natural disaster here, so I have to leave. People want to move close to where they are. So they're generally saying, like, all right, I can't be out here in the farm area anymore. So let's move toward the urban centers. And that's why a lot of these urban centers in the Global south are popping at the seams.
- [05:53]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah. And it's going to definitely get more poppy for sure as we go. But as it stands right now, especially, say, like, you can take California for an example, they deal with wildfires. Like, that's just a fact of life. And it's getting to be a much more frequent fact of life. So if you leave your house because there's a wildfire in your backyard, you are technically a climate migrant. Right. Then.
- [06:19]
Jerry
Yeah.
- [06:19]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
But if you go back and rebuild or your house didn't end up burning down, you're basically following the current pattern of climate migration. You're leaving long enough for you to take yourself out of harm's way during the disaster, the extreme weather event, and then going back. But if you do that enough times, some people are going to just get tired of that and they're eventually not going to go back. And that's kind of like how climate migration, at least say in the United States right now is starting to look.
- [06:53]
Jerry
Yeah.
- [06:53]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Or starting to establish itself.
- [06:56]
Jerry
Right. But the idea is that, I guess if you're moving away from where wildfires are more rampant, you're gonna move to a place probably as close as you can. Unless, you know, in America, if you have, like, family on the other side of the country or something where those wildfires generally don't happen, maybe you'll do that. But if we're talking about countries, you're probably moving within your country. And within your country, it's not like, oh, well, I'm at a place where the climate problem isn't a problem, so it's not solving a Bigger problem, you know what I'm saying?
- [07:32]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah. And even more so if you're a migrant even within your own country, like you said, say, to an urban center or something like that. A lot of times when you show up, you might show up with all of your neighbors, your entire community, maybe your entire region. If the, say, like, the drought is bad enough and the city's not like, hey, we just happen to have all this extra free housing for you guys, so come on in. Very frequently, you'll end up in what amounts to a refugee camp. It's a climate refugee camp, but it's essentially the same thing as any other refugee camp. There's usually not running water, there's not good infrastructure. And this is a point that I hadn't thought of, but Livia pointed out you're maybe even more vulnerable to natural disasters now because you live in a tent. So if a sandstorm comes along, you're in trouble because you just are in a tent rather than, say, the house that you had to leave because your farm was no longer producing crops.
- [08:31]
Jerry
Yeah. And also you're living like, perhaps in like, a shanty town on the outskirts of town, and you're going to see increased poverty. That's going to be an unstable situation. And then violence comes along oftentimes in these places. She found one study from 2022 of Central African migrants, 5% reported that they moved specifically for environmental reasons. But 50% said, yeah, but that played a part in the decision to leave. Like, whether or not they're saying, like, no, the drought's too bad here, I'm leaving. Or some places are just, the extreme heat is becoming so bad as people just can't live there anymore. They're not saying, I'm moving just because of that, but half of them are saying, like, yeah, that was a factor that led to this whole mess.
- [09:21]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Right? Yeah. And there's probably the most famous and most well studied recent example of climate migration leading to violent conflict was the Syrian Civil War. Between 2006 and 2010, there was a really, really bad drought in Syria and the surrounding region. And a lot of people had to move to the city or cities. And they, like, a lot of people were displaced, and they joined people who had already arrived as refugees before from Iraq and from Palestine. And so all these people are there. The government is basically ignoring them, pretending like they're not there. Their farms are being lost. They're getting zero help from the government, which has become neoliberal under Bashar al Assad, who took over from his father. And they start the unrest gets bad enough that a civil war starts, like there's a rebel insurgency to topple Assad. And it actually ended up working. It didn't at first because Assad famously used chemical weapons on his own people and he got everything under control. But then they made a second a push this past, I think, December, and ran them out of the country and actually took over. And you can trace that ultimately back to that drought that was created largely by climate change. And that's. That's nuts. Like, if you think about it, if that drought had never happened, there wouldn't have been a Syrian civil war. And that's probably the most extreme version example of a climate crisis leading to violent armed conflict. But it's not like it doesn't exist. It's not like it doesn't happen. Like that happened.
- [11:08]
Jerry
Yeah, I mean, over an eight year period from 2002 to 2010, the urban population in Syria went from just under 9 million people to almost 14 million.
- [11:18]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
That's nuts.
- [11:19]
Jerry
That is a lot of people to add. But. And this isn't like I'm in full agreement, so this isn't a counterpoint, but Syria mishandled that. And there are other countries in the region that suffered through the same drought, specifically Jordan and Lebanon, that had a government that was more proactive and responsive and they had policies that were put in place that they didn't have the same kind of destructive outcomes that Syria had. So it all depends on how you're handling the situation. We're going to talk a lot about countries, you know, people leaving countries and then especially the receiving countries, because that's really where the rubber meets the road for sure.
- [12:00]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
If the rubber hasn't melted by then.
- [12:03]
Jerry
That's right. And if the road is still intact and not cracked to pieces.
- [12:07]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah, it hasn't buckled. Yeah. There are actually some estimates all over the place about how many climate migrants there are going to be. And there was something called the Groundswell Report that the World bank put out in 2021. And they are saying by 2050, 216 million people will have moved either to another country or within their own country because climate conditions have made where they used to live untenable. So we're talking 25 years, not even 30 years anymore, Chuck. We're in 2025. That's if, if my math holds up, that's just 25 years from now. That is a tremendous amount of migration. Some people say that's probably going to be more like 50 million. But it seems like that world bank analysis is the most commonly cited. Although you could also suggest it's the most commonly cited because it's such an eye popping number.
- [13:04]
Jerry
Yeah, true. Well, this is probably a good place since I promised to talk about something stat related. One of the reasons it's hard or one of the reasons you get something like anywhere from 50 to 250 million people this pretty big swing is cause we don't know how effective our efforts are gonna be to curb emissions and to get things sort of on the right track again, how successful we're gonna be at some wealthier countries doing things like seawalls and redistributing water resources and things like that. Cause as you'll see a lot of. And we talked about before, the most precious resource in the future is love. It is love. Oh man, I needed that water. Unfortunately. So, you know, there have been people that talk about, you know, the wars of the future will be fought over water. And as we'll see, a lot of climate migration happens either because of a lack of water or a lack of water that's, you know, useful for humans or too much water in other parts like rising seawaters and such.
- [14:07]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah, for sure. So the, the World bank broke it down that sub Saharan Africa is going to see by far the most 86 million, followed by East Asia and the Pacific at 49 million. South South Asia, 40 million. North Africa, 19 million. Although some people are like, it's going to be even more than that for North America and parts of the Middle east because it's going to get so hot that it will be uninhabitable by humans.
- [14:35]
Jerry
Yeah, I think you can mean it in North Africa, not North America.
- [14:38]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
That's right, yes. North Africa in the Middle East. Not North America in the Middle East.
- [14:43]
Jerry
I think people who listen to the show know us enough now to where we're like old pals and they're like, oh, Josh, Chuck, you don't even need to point that out. We know what he meant.
- [14:50]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
You know what though? I think we should introduce a new device here in the year 17. Whenever I misspeak, just cut me off in the middle by doing your egg color splat sound.
- [15:04]
Jerry
Can we try one?
- [15:05]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Let's try that. All right, you ready?
- [15:06]
Jerry
Yeah.
- [15:07]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
So it's going to get so hot in the Middle east and North America that. What did I say wrong, Chuck?
- [15:14]
Jerry
Nothing. I just like doing that sound.
- [15:17]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
I think we've come up with something new that we really need to do.
- [15:21]
Jerry
All right, well, how about this? Why don't we take a Break. You said Latin America was 17 million, right?
- [15:27]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
No, I never got there.
- [15:28]
Jerry
Latin America, 17 million.
- [15:30]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Don't forget Eastern Europe and Central Asia.
- [15:33]
Jerry
5 million. So, you know, not nearly as many as the others, but there are, again, water scarcity.
- [15:40]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah.
- [15:40]
Jerry
In places like Mongolia and Kazakhstan. So now can we take a break?
- [15:45]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah, we can take a break. I think you should take us out on your egg splat sound again.
- [15:49]
Jerry
All right, we'll be right back.
- [16:06]

Harvey Guillen
Sonoro and iHeart's Mike Ultura podcast Network present the Setup, a new romantic comedy podcast starring Harvey Guillen and Christian Navar. The setup follows a lonely museum curator searching for love. But when the perfect man walks into his life.
- [18:52]
Christian Navarro
Well, I guess I'm saying I like you, you like me.
- [18:55]
Harvey Guillen
He actually is too good to be true.
- [18:59]
Christian Navarro
This is a con. I'm conning you to get the Delano painting. We could do this together.
- [19:03]
Harvey Guillen
To pull off this heist, they'll have to get close and jump into the deep end together. That's a huge lead, Fernando, don't you think?
- [19:11]
Christian Navarro
I've you, Chito.
- [19:13]
Harvey Guillen
But love is the biggest risk they'll ever take.
- [19:16]
Jerry
Fernando is never going to love you.
- [19:18]
Vanessa Marshall
As much as he loves this job.
- [19:22]
Christian Navarro
Chito. That painting is ours.
- [19:25]
Harvey Guillen
Listen to the setup as part of the Mike podcast network, available on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.
- [19:46]
Jerry
All right, so I kind of teased out the importance of. Or I'm sorry, importance. I soften tease. Here in the south, everybody, if you haven't noticed by now, in year 17, receiving communities are very important. How safe these people are gonna be when they move to this place. And again, a, they're still gonna be vulnerable to the impacts of climate where they go most likely or almost, you know, with 100% certainty. But just how safe they're going to be, period. Because we talked about sometimes when they set up on the outskirts of towns and there's violence and they're more susceptible by being in a shanty or a tent or something to just even a hard rain. So it's almost like this. It's a vicious cycle that's happening where people are being displaced to places that also aren't safe.
- [20:37]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah. And we should say that most of this migration and most of the migrants are going to be coming from or going, moving within what's Called the Global South.
- [20:47]
Jerry
Yeah.
- [20:47]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
And you don't use the equator as the dividing line for the global South. For example, Australia and New Zealand squarely in the Southern hemisphere, but they're not considered global South. It's a distinction between the developed and the developing world. So you have Latin America, Africa, India is usually included, China's included, and Southeast Asia. And these countries, ironically, are, if you accept China and India, most of these countries have put out the least amount of emissions that triggered climate change. And yet they're the most vulnerable to climate change in large part because they're developing. And if you're a developing country, you're probably still really reliant on agriculture. You're reliant on things like timber and other natural resources. And those are the things that are getting impacted first right off the bat. And so if your economy is based on agriculture and there's a drought that covers your entire nation, your economy is in big trouble and your people are probably going to have to move.
- [21:54]
Jerry
Yeah. Here's the thing, though, and this isn't like a bright side sort of thing. It puts a strain on resources when a lot of new people come to a place. But they can also be an asset because most of those migrants are gonna end up performing a lot of very important jobs in that area. A lot of them work in agriculture, some work in construction, some work in childcare. But those same people are also not necessarily. It depends on the receiving community, even down to that community level, and how they're gonna take care of those people. And what I mean by take care in this case is just see that they get a fair shot at like, earning a wage by performing a job. If you face up a lot of potential workplace abuse if you're one of those migrants. And the United Arab Emirates is a striking example. 88% of the population there is made up of migrants, mainly from Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh, and it's very hot there as well. And so they're not taking care of their migrant population of workers. And they can just sometimes some companies might be like, you know what, we're not going to pay you for that. What are you going to do about it?
- [23:03]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah, there's a lot of examples of modern slavery, forced labor in the UAE and other countries, very wealthy Gulf states. And that is a good example of climate migrants, but really any kind of migrant being taken advantage of. And it's something that definitely has to be paid attention to. On the other hand, there are studies that say, okay, this actually might be good. Like, yes, we need to make sure that the receiving countries are not exploiting the climate migrants or any migrants, but the. The pressure that could be relieved from their home country if they're moving to more developed or wealthier countries that are more set up with infrastructure and social structure to absorb them. Yeah, that actually could be a plus, because all of a sudden, the population is not swollen in an urban center where it's really hot and you're around people from an ethnic group that your ethnic group has hated for a thousand years. Like, moving some of these people out to other countries could actually be a relief valve that could keep social upheaval from happening.
- [24:09]
Jerry
Yeah, potentially. So under the United nations, they have a refugee convention from 1951 that specifically defines the good thing. It does. It defines that refugees are entitled to legal rights, entitled to travel, some kinds of support housing, that kind of thing. But I guess kind of the downside of what it did is it very narrowly defined what a refugee was in the wake of World War II, which was you have to be fleeing persecution on the basis of race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or group membership, and only if you're fleeing from one border to the next. We already mentioned that a lot of this is happening within their home country. So they don't have any of those UN guaranteed rights. But a lot of people, legal scholars, are saying, hey, we need to expand that definition to include maybe not necessarily only cross border and people who are climate refugees.
- [25:09]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah. Like, why not add the sun? You can be fleeing the sun, and we'll consider you a refugee from now on.
- [25:16]
Jerry
That's me. Every summer in Atlanta.
- [25:18]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Right. You just go down in your basement. Right. And turn 60.
- [25:22]
Jerry
Yeah.
- [25:23]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
So, yes, there are, like. I guess there's structure. There's like, global structure that can be applied to climate migrants and climate refugees. It's just. That's not necessarily happening right now. But it wouldn't take much, I think, is what we're saying, Right, to just kind of expand the existing definitions.
- [25:42]
Jerry
Well, yeah, and that's just, you know, that's the UN definition. There are other places in the world. The Organization of African Unity Convention and the Latin America. Cartagena. Is that Cartagena?
- [25:52]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah, I know that from Romancing the Stunt.
- [25:56]
Jerry
We just watched that with Ruby last weekend.
- [25:59]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
It's such a good movie.
- [26:00]
Jerry
It holds up. And it is. If you have a kid that's around that age that's into sort of like action adventure kind of movies, which she is. It's a great one, man. She had a really good time. And it's not like, super inappropriate for an 80s movie, that's really surprising.
- [26:16]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Did you follow up with Jewel of the Nile?
- [26:19]
Jerry
Not yet, but, yeah, that'll be coming. It's just Danny DeVito. Man, what a national treasure that guy is.
- [26:27]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah, he really is a jewel.
- [26:28]
Jerry
So great. Ira. Ira. I forgot how much I love Romancing the Stone. All right, so back to Cartagena Declaration. They have an expanded definition of refugee that is more broad than the un, where they say events that are seriously disturbing public order, which obviously could include climate events.
- [26:49]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah, the sun can do that. Yeah. So one of the things that a lot of these nations that are going to be most affected are saying is like, hey, we appreciate you guys thinking about this, but we don't really want to move. So is there, like a version of this where we can stay and you wealthy countries who kind of got us into this mess in the first place can maybe help fund some of the mitigation efforts that we're trying to. To put in place? And so far, the wealthy countries are like, what? I can't hear you. The. The connection's breaking up. But that may change as we get a little further down the road. Who knows? But there are some. Some governments that are, like, kind of starting to plan because they're like, this is not. This is not 2050 for us. This is like 2030 that we're having to worry about. And in some places, it's already started happening. Like, Kiribati is a Pacific island nation. It's 32 nations, about 130,000 people, and at best, it's just about at sea level. And when sea level is rising, Kiribati is going under the sea. And apparently sea level is rising about four times faster than other parts of the world.
- [28:02]
Jerry
Yeah, the writing's on the wall there, very sadly, for sure.
- [28:06]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
So their government was like, okay, we have to figure out how to move people, and we have to figure out how to do it right. And they started looking at Fiji. Right?
- [28:16]
Jerry
Yeah. And Fiji kind of stepped up and were like, hey, we have some underdeveloped land. I guess it was undeveloped land that we can sell you. This is in 2014. And the President at the time of Kiribati was Enote Tong.
- [28:31]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah, that's right. Yeah.
- [28:32]
Jerry
All right. And Tong's was all over this. Like, let's buy this land. Let's move people. Like, not just a few families. Like, let's start moving en masse over there. Because the writing is on the wall here, and these islands just aren't gonna be around at some Point he was calling it migration with dignity. And then in 2016, Tang lost the president to Taneti Mamau. And this, it was just, you know, sometimes when a new administration comes in, Josh, things can shift in radical directions. I don't know if you knew that or not.
- [29:07]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
I could see Momau basically running on this platform because I'm guessing 130,000 people in a 32 island spread is Kiribati. Like, I'm guessing moving the entire country to Fiji is probably top of the mind of the voters there. So I'm guessing that MAU MAU or Ma MAU ran on a platform against moving and was like, no, we're going to figure out how to stay here. We're going to build sea walls, we're going to cross our fingers, we're going to use fairy dust. Who knows what, what they were running on. But they won. Because people don't want to move if they don't have to. If there's a chance of them staying where they lived, where their families have lived, they want to stay. Typically, that's what people who study climate migrants are finding.
- [29:59]
Jerry
Yeah, well, in that case, it was billions of dollars to physically re engineer these islands and build those walls. And they didn't have that kind of dough. So China stepped up and said, hey, you got that marine protected zone where you don't allow fishing. Give us those fishing rights. So this is just sort of another good example of the domino effect that can happen. All of a sudden you're wrecking that part of the sea because it was a protected zone that's no longer protected because China said, hey, we'll help you re engineer those islands if you let us fish there. But they only ended up giving a fraction of the cost of what's needed. I think New Zealand is also stepping up, right?
- [30:39]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Well, they tried to. They created a new visa specifically for residents of places like Kiribati who are like, we need to get out now. And New Zealand very kindly was like, you guys can come live here. We're going to make it as easy as possible on you. And the people of Kiribati just gave them crickets back.
- [30:56]
Jerry
Yeah.
- [30:57]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
In New Zealand within six months, like cancel the program because they had basically no takers. They did not need this special visa because people, again, don't want to move. If there's any chance of them not having to move.
- [31:08]
Jerry
I get it.
- [31:09]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
You know, I totally get it as well, for sure. And I mean, if you put yourself in that mindset, it suddenly is like, okay, I kind of get why people keep moving back after their house burns down from a wildfire or gets blown away by a hurricane or gets picked up by a tornado, that's where you live. And it just hasn't, I feel like it just hasn't gotten quite frequent enough for people, at least let's say in the United States. It's my frame of reference to just be like, okay, this is not going to change. This is going to keep getting worse. We need to leave.
- [31:43]
Jerry
Yeah. I mean, I think people are of two minds here. And it seems like there are way more people that are so attached to their home they don't want to leave it, but they're, you know, I've heard just anecdotally stories of people that are like, I'm getting the heck out of California or I'm getting the heck out of a hurricane, you know, prone area. Like if you live around the Gulf of Mexico or something like that, and those panhandle areas or in like Houston or Miami, we're getting out of Dodge. So some people are doing that, but it definitely doesn't seem like people are taking it seriously enough yet.
- [32:21]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
What's nuts though is if you go to Miami today, their skyline is covered with construction cranes. They cannot build skyscrapers for housing fast enough because so many people are still moving to Miami. And I say we take a break and come back and talk about what's going to happen to cities in the US as far as climate migration is concerned.

Jerry

Charles W. Chuck Bryant
So I name checked Miami before the break, and that is a really good example of a city that is kind of up in the air for how much climate migration is going to affect it. Is it going to get so bad down there that they're just going to have to abandon Miami? And it'll look like a reverse the Day After Tomorrow, but with heat and seawater rather than everything being frozen, which, by the way, I saw that the.
- [37:12]
Jerry
Other day for the first time.
- [37:14]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
No, it's actually one of my favorite movies, it turns out, because every single time it's on, I will just sit there and watch it.
- [37:22]
Jerry
Oh, did I see that all the way? I think I might have seen that all the way through back when it came out, but that was it.
- [37:28]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah, I hesitate to use the word good because it's great, but yeah, I just like it. It's one of those, really. It's like Zodiac. I can watch Zodiac anytime it comes on. I might not search it out, but I'll just sit there and watch it if it's presented to me somehow.
- [37:45]
Jerry
No, I'm the same way. There's something about Zodiac that is just endlessly watchable to me.
- [37:49]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah, for sure. But the Day After Tomorrow is like that for me.
- [37:53]
Jerry
Okay, well, you know what? I should check it out again. Oh, and I think I have a good reason to. Coming up. Hint, hint.
- [37:57]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah, that's actually what triggered that idea.
- [38:00]
Jerry
Okay.
- [38:02]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
It was you and me just talking about something that only you and I know about.
- [38:07]
Jerry
I know. You know, I have a couple of stats. As far as the United States goes. This is at this point Already here in 2025, 2 or 3 million Americans leave their homes every year. Every single year, 2 to 3 million due to natural disasters that happen. Floods, earthquakes, fires, hurricanes. All the stuff that happens here. I don't, you know volcanoes.
- [38:31]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
That's not the one. That's not the ones. Well, there's Mount St. Helens. That was a big deal.
- [38:37]
Jerry
Oh, yeah, yeah, true. But generally, in the lower 48, we don't have volcanoes.
- [38:40]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Right. So that 2 to 3 million number. Those are people who move permanently. Right. That's not just people who, like, leave and then come back.
- [38:49]
Jerry
No, no, no. Those are. Most of those people do return. But over the past couple of decades, about 3 million people have moved just to avoid flooding, which is a long period of time. But those are people that are just like, yeah, this place floods. I mean, I remember after Katrina, I feel like Atlanta got a Pretty decent amount of displaced New Orleans residents that stayed here. I have evidence by going to Falcons games.
- [39:16]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Right. So. So did Houston, too.
- [39:19]
Jerry
Yeah.
- [39:20]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah. So that's a great example of that kind of thing happening. And, like, I'm sure a lot of them went back when it was clear that New Orleans was going to be rebuilt and revitalized and get back to normal, but a lot of them stayed. I'm sure a lot of them are like, things don't flood quite as much here in Atlanta, so I'm going to just kind of stay here.
- [39:39]
Jerry
Yeah. And Atlanta, I mean, New Orleans is certainly such a singular, unique city in America culturally, like, maybe more so than almost any city I've been to. So Atlanta is not that, but it's another big city in the south that I think is at least relatable to somebody from New Orleans in some ways.
- [39:57]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
For sure. Yeah. There's like 98% less brass bands marching around, but, you know, there's still a certain amount of, like, Southern affinity between the two cities. Right.
- [40:08]
Jerry
Yeah. For, like, big cities.
- [40:10]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
So sea level rise is going to affect the U.S. but I didn't know this. There's like, you know, they talk about sea level rise, you know, being like 0.1 millimeter a year or something like that, or they're predicting that's the global average sea level rises in different places at different rates. And it can be so local that apparently the eastern seaboard of the United States is that sea level is rising faster than the West Coast. It can be that local. And the reason why is there's something called post glacial rebound where the top part of the eastern seaboard, like New York, all that area was pressed down by a glacier. And after the glacier retreated 10,000 or so years ago, that that part of the land is still moving up, it's coming back, it's rebounding. But at the same time, that's kind of pushing down like a seesaw the southern part of the eastern seaboard. So that's actually the sea levels are rising faster there than even in the northern part of the eastern seaboard. It's crazy.
- [41:14]
Jerry
Yeah. And, you know, that's just sea level rise. And this isn't a. I'm reticent to do episodes sometimes where we're just like, you know, slinging fear in statistics.
- [41:25]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Right.
- [41:25]
Jerry
But it's sort of the reality right now. Wildfire threat has just gotten worse, especially if you're talking about Nevada and Oregon, places that maybe didn't see the most wildfire in the past. And it's not just Miami, as far as sea level rise like New York and Boston. I mean, New York has seen flooding in the not too distant past where we never used to see things like that happening there.
- [41:51]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
I saw that some of the communities, the houses along Jamaica Bay, which I guess is Queens, right? Yeah, they flood every time there's. At high tide, there's a full moon, like just flood. Their entire basement just totally flooded. And it's starting to happen every single time there's a full moon at high tide. So yeah, I was reading like they're on the forefront of talking about climate migration in the U.S. well, the other.
- [42:17]
Jerry
Thing too that we mentioned earlier, we haven't talked so much since then, is it's not necessarily a climate event or some natural disaster either to cause climate migration. It's like farmers, if they can't farm there anymore and their livelihood is gone, they might move. And across the south and southwest, especially in Texas, the projections for corn and soy are just falling, falling, falling. So you're going to be able to grow that easier in other parts of the country. So that's a bit of a silver lining as things change and shift. But those are going to eventually be climate migrants, those farmers there.
- [42:55]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah. And so it seems like the projections show that 2050, 2070, the current climate that spreads across the United States is going to shift northward by a few states. And those states that are currently hot right now, but still, you know, kind of nice, like Florida, coastal Georgia, they're going to potentially become uninhabitable just because it's going to be so hot. So it turns out I was right about the Middle east and North America becoming so hot that it can be uninhabitable. And apparently that's due to what's called the wet bulb temperature, which is a mind boggling formula that barely anyone on the Internet can explain. And I can't throw sling arrows because I can't really explain it either. But essentially it's the temperature where your body will no longer be able to cool itself. And so being outside in the sun, just standing there is actually life threatening. Yeah, they're saying that it's going to become the norm for say like Florida and southern Georgia to hit those temperatures. And so people are just going to have to move because you wouldn't be able to leave your house and even go outside.
- [44:07]
Jerry
Do you remember when we were tasked with doing a panel at a podcast movement? That's the name of the industry conference, I guess.
- [44:18]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah, con in the parlance.
- [44:20]
Jerry
But it's like an Industry conference. And we were supposed to speak in, like, 10 minutes on stage, and a fire alarm or something went out.
- [44:29]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Oh, yeah.
- [44:30]
Jerry
And they made us go outside. And it was two minutes in the Orlando summer heat after it had stopped raining. One of those afternoon Florida rains that everywhere on elsewhere on Earth, that cools things down, but it makes things hotter in central Florida.
- [44:45]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah.
- [44:46]
Jerry
And we went outside and had to stand out there for, like, 20 minutes before they let us back in. And, dude, I'm a hot, sweaty person anyway. I have never sweated that much that fast in my life.
- [44:57]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yeah.
- [44:58]
Jerry
I was dying. And they were like, all right, back in, everybody, and hop on stage.
- [45:03]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Right. I remember that. I was pretty sweaty, too.
- [45:06]
Jerry
Oh, man, I was in bad shape. It was not good.
- [45:09]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Just wait till 2070, pal.
- [45:11]
Jerry
I know.
- [45:12]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
You just melt.
- [45:13]
Jerry
Podcast movement. 2070.
- [45:14]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Right. Right. Here we are. So the US is actually a good example of people not freaking out, some people freaking out, but it seems mostly like it's the media just kind of poking and goosing everybody that among scholars who study this, they're not particularly freaked out. They're like, yes, some people are going to have to move. Yes, it's going to really start to pick up eventually. But there will also be mitigation efforts that we can do. Like, we're. Miami is just too valuable to just go away. So they're going to figure out how to build seawalls, protect Miami, and make sure that its aquifer doesn't get salinated and ruined. Like, people will just pump money into Miami. The US Government will, Florida will. But if you go, like, a little north, you know, who's to say that Delray beach or Vero beach is going to be around still at that time?
- [46:13]
Jerry
Right.
- [46:14]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Cities will be protected, but the smaller towns in between the major cities on the coast, there's not gonna be any money for them. So those people are going to have to move.
- [46:23]
Jerry
Yeah. And I mean, that kind of puts things squarely. In the middle of the policy debates, we're hearing more and more, which is how much do we put into places that we think are increasingly unlivable in the future? This is something I did not know. I'm glad Livia dug this up. But fema, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, has been buying up properties that are prone to this, that are just flooding time and time again, and they're turning this land into wetland and trying to do something about it. And there are various states that are saying, like, hey, it's getting harder and harder to get your house insured against Fire. We used to subsidize these insurance companies. Now we're not doing that. I have friends in California. Like if you buy a house in certain parts of California, sometimes you cannot even get insurance anymore.
- [47:13]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Right. The same is true in parts of Florida too. It's really becoming a big problem to even get insurance, rather let alone like being able to afford an insurance policy. And as that happens, as it becomes more and more apparent that if you move to Florida or you move to California, there's this huge additional expense or potentially you might not be able to have home insurance. Right. Like that's going to affect those markets. And that in and of itself is going to keep people from migrating there. And it's going to also that's what will trigger mass migrations from Florida, from California, because people are going to start panicking about their real estate values just plummeting. Yeah, a lot of people will get out.
- [47:58]
Jerry
People of means will get out.
- [48:00]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Yes, and that's a really important point. It doesn't matter what country you're talking about, whether it's Global North, Global south, doesn't matter. The ability to migrate is typically something reserved for the more well off groups.
- [48:16]
Jerry
Or to migrate successfully.
- [48:18]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Right. Okay, great. The poorest, the most vulnerable people in no matter whatever country you're talking about, those are the ones who are at the greatest risk of just getting left behind. They don't have the money to move. They can't sell their house now because no one wants to buy it because it's basically valueless. And they're stuck in this place that everyone else who could migrated out of. That is going to be a really big thing to watch for. Those people are going to need help. They're human beings. They didn't ask for this. That's just how the, how the dice landed. So they deserve to be helped again. Just because they're humans, just because they're Americans, just because they're Zimbabweans, it doesn't matter. That's going to be something to really pay attention to down the road.
- [49:06]
Jerry
Boy, what kind of world would we be in, my friend, if the qualification for aid to others was fellow human and not drawn by boundaries and ideologies?
- [49:18]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
I hope that that's, I mean, my hope is that someday we'll hit that point. I don't know if we'll still be alive or not, but I do hope that, I do think people will get there if we survive as species.
- [49:29]
Jerry
I mean, plenty of great organizations have been doing that since the jump, but I'm talking about major governments in the world, looking at other humans as, you.
- [49:40]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Know, other humans or even societies too, you know? I mean. Yeah, Yeah. I mean, that's just everywhere in the world, there's so many pockets of just conflict and issues and hatred of. Of people for eventually, ultimately, like, arbitrary reasons. The idea of. Yeah. Getting to that point, Chuck, it's just. It's titillating to me. I'm titillated right now. I think that's it for now, huh?
- [50:09]
Jerry
It's gotta be.
- [50:10]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Well, we'll revisit this in 2050.
- [50:13]
Jerry
All right.
- [50:14]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
All right. Well, since Chuck agreed to revisiting this episode in 2050, everybody, that means it's time for listener mail.
- [50:23]
Jerry
Follow up from a backyard chicken farmer about egg colors. Hey, I've listened to you goofballs for years. So much love to you and your gang. Yes, please support your local farmers with their truly humanely raised eggs, costing in many cases, less than store bought. Like Chuck said, you're getting an amazing deal for higher quality eggs. Number two, guys, the waxy coating is called a bloom. It's a naturally produced coating which is not hard or thick that is placed as a part of the laying process to protect the egg contents from bacteria.
- [50:54]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
I believe Josh said that comes off easily with just a little bit of Dawn.
- [50:58]
Jerry
And number three, please do not use dish soap to wash your eggs. Oh, yeah, While eggshells are strong, they're not impermeable. Eggs need to be washed with just water or water in an egg safe cleaner at a temperature about 20 degrees higher.
- [51:12]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Right.
- [51:12]
Jerry
But no more than that because you can cook the egg on the inside.
- [51:15]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Oh, that makes sense.
- [51:16]
Jerry
20 degrees higher than the temperature of the egg interior. Washing an egg at too high will potentially cook it. Wash at a temperature lower than the shell contents. And the permeable nature of the shell will actually absorb the exterior contents. So you're eating whatever soap that you are using.
- [51:31]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Well, not Dawn. It says on the label egg safe cleaner.
- [51:37]
Jerry
This knowledge is gained from keeping my own backyard flock for over a decade. And that is from the wonderful Meg.
- [51:43]
Charles W. Chuck Bryant
Thanks a lot, Meg. That was a top notch email. We appreciate it and thank you for saving everybody who's about to wash their eggs with dish soap under my suggestion. If you want to be like Megan, get in touch with us and be like, oh, no, no, no. Here's what you really should do. We love those kind of emails. You can send it off to stuffpodcastheartradio.com.
