#2Long story short. Move toward the poles. High ground and water supplies and nearby farmers.

If you're lucky, you don't even need to move, the jetstream moves the pole to you and you get -40 degrees every winter!

#4That’s not honest at all. That’s just a different set of talking points.
“while society wants to see emissions reduced, nobody wants to pay for it.” Yeah, right, oil is cheaper, of course.

Or a heat dome when the jet stream slows. It makes loops up and down where pockets of extreme heat or cold form

Unlikely unless you live in the southern hemisphere. Nodal lock is now rare in the northern hemisphere because Arctic sea ice is very low, which is required to stabilize the polar jet stream and keep the cold in the north. This causes weather/climate to become highly variable in the northern hemisphere.
Long term, I would look to areas like southern Chile and Tasmania because Arctic and Subarctic areas will increasingly experience forest fires, tundra collapse, and highly variable temperatures.

He’s right in the sense that people, in today’s set up, don’t want to pay. But can we imagine a different choice architecture where people don’t mind giving up the black stuff?

Cheaper because they don't pay for the externalities.
It's their own profits they are talking about, amazing people fall for this.

Boy, do I have bad news for you about Tasmania if you don't like forest fires.
