Saw this the other day - what a lot of rubbish - like do we
R E A L L Y need to know this????
What a waste of funds to study this . . . . And yes - those funds could have been spent at better projects - like getting Africa out of Poverty for example!!

Although Farnsworth’s model wasn’t designed to capture the nuances of small areas like New Zealand, the researcher doesn’t expect the country will remain habitable.
But he said the likely outcomes of the world in 250 million years shouldn’t be used as an excuse not to take climate action. “We need to make sure we keep the climate in a cooler, more hospitable condition if we want to continue to thrive.”

The Delusion that Humanity can make an impact in 250 M I L L I O N years time from what we do now!!!
Lets do some Math's here:
We assume a life expectancy of 70 years - divide the 250mil by 70 = 3,571,428.57 consecutive adults
and if we assume a very steady every 30 years a new generation to be born that would be 8,333,333.33 humans -
make that the 8.3 M I L L I O N T H Grand-transgender whatever child of yours!!

Farnsworth, who has modeled the climate of the super-continent in a just-released scientific study, said the heat is likely to “effectively render New Zealand uninhabitable”.

Damn - I love my place here!! I gotta move!!!
Hmmm Cook Islands sounds great - although that will be absorbed into grand-pangea or whatever and NZ will sit at that latitude by then
- hmmmm maybe I stay put and enjoy my future warm retirement climate!!
Yeah - why not!!!!
Have fun!
