There is no preparation or even an awareness of how bad this is going to get in this country. Tens of thousands of people will die when this happens and there will be no accountability, no plan, because effectively the entire population (with the help of the mass media) has willingly gone along with the idea that "climate change doesn't exist" or that it will just mean sunnier weather, for decades and decades. It is hard to have sympathy for a society so rich, so rotten, and so thoroughly warned of the consequences of its actions.
Thought I remembered a bunch of people dying in heat waves a few years ago, and a quick search suggests that there were ~3k deaths in england and wales. But of course this either "isn't here yet" or "isn't a serious problem". Fucking climate change fascists.
