It will get too hot in these regions for any rice to grow!

Here's the map of what regions will likely be effected, look at India

It's been openly discussed in the literature for a while that Bangladesh is probably going to be functionally uninhabitable by mid-century due to the combination of high heat and high humidity leading to frequent wet bulb events. The humid tropics are not going to be a place where people want to live.

A country of 170 million people doomjak

We're probably about to witness the poleward migration of some 800 million people over the next 50-60 years. I've read multiple journal articles warning about it, and the parts of the world that aren't sliding into nativist fascism are sitting there waiting to be blindsided. It has legitimately kept me awake at night.

Climate change will kick off a mass migration so large and so violent that it will make the Arab Spring look like a picnic. imo the reason why we've seen so much of the Fortress First World mentality in North American and Europe over the last decade or so is because leaders understand they need to start laying the foundations now to start massacring people at the border when millions of people try to flee their native countries.

Every antisemitic slander is a cracker confession. They’re literal pigs. They want us all to die because they can’t stop stuffing their faces like the worthless hedonists they are!

Gulags are too good for them.

Yeah, even if they made some kind of super heat resistant rice, are workers going to go into the fields wearing space suits?

I assume Bangladesh is also just going to cease to exist as sea levels rise. 10% of the country is below sea level
