Going North

``Depending on the warming scenarios used and adaptation levels assumed, with other factors held constant, by approximately the year 2080, climate change is estimated to induce 1.4 to 6.7 million adult Mexicans (or 2% to 10% of the current population aged 15–65 y) to emigrate as a result of declines in agricultural productivity alone. Although the results cannot be mechanically extrapolated to other areas and time periods, our findings are significant from a global perspective given that many regions, especially developing countries, are expected to experience significant declines in agricultural yields as a result of projected warming.''

From PNAS.

Nobody in Maricopa County, AZ, Police Department has read it; I am almost sure. There is an authority there, Joe Arpaio, that doesn't seem to be concerned with thinking men, he is an action man.
