    St Petersburg has an issue with flooding

    and Europe has a much bigger problem with flooding. Lemme just recap the tantrum:

    1. “LMAO Russia doesn’t have any warm water ports” – you
    2. uhh you know that’s going to become less true as global warming progresses?
    3. “LOL but St Petersburg is gonna get flooded from the meltwater” – you
    4. yea but Europe is going to get the same flood but 10x worse? Dutchland? Hello?
    5. “UHH IDK WHAT you’re tryna CONVINCE me of, I’m just stating facts!! I’m not owned! I’m not owned!” – you

    Climate change won’t save them and will actively harm them like everyone else. Climate change also is not flat warming, that’s what stupid people believe.

    Yes, but some areas get hurt worse by climate change. Yes, it’s not flat warming all at once. However both of these things fuck Europe over more than Russia. The AMOC gulf stream keeps Europe warm, not Russia. The entire Mediterranean is also going to be hurt particularly bad by droughts and wildfires. So that’s a ton more refugees, not only from outside Europe but even from Southern Europe.

    These problems simply do not exist for Russia, and its population density is far lower, and it will gain continents’ more arable/habitable land as the climate warms, AND it will also receive more rainfall. It is not even close to a contest to say that Russia benefits more from climate change than any other nation on earth. If you don’t think so, then post even one climate-induced problem that’s unique to Russia (you can’t)
