Danny Bloom calls his speculations about the future and the possible need for polar cities in the distant future as THE EXODUS STRATEGEM. It means that in the future, humans MIGHT have to take part in a mass exodus from tropical and temperate zones and migrate north to Alaska and Canada and Russia, to survive in polar cities in the north and in New Zealand and Tasmania, too. Sounds like a sci fi movie, I know.
"Of course, it's not a theory at all, and it's not even a hypothesis," he said. "It's more of an EXODUS speculation, to 1. wake people up and 2. to point the way to a possible adaptation solution that just might work."
Rememer the Exodus story from the Hebrew Scriptures? This might be a new Exodus, with or without the blessings of God. It's up to us humans to make sure this never happens. BUT time is running out. Time may have already run out. And if so, we might really need polar cities some day. God forbid. It won't be a pretty picture!
