Climate change disproportionately impacts poor nations and those vulnerable to sea level rise and extreme weather events. Wealthy nations can rely on technology to avoid most disasters.
Isn't Europe and N.America supposed to go into an ice age due to climate change? Technology won't be of much help there with dead agri sector.

Small planes like Cessna always seem to be crashing. I would never get into one of those, or helicopters, or Boeing planes either. Or literally anything flown by Indian pilots or operated by Indian airlines. I wouldn't trust Indian drivers either.

Cessna is pretty safe imo. Always seems to be crashing may be because it dominates the market.

Secretary of War*

Still too woke of a title for the great Pete Hegseth, so I recommend something along the lines of: War Master.
Secretary of war sounds so weird. Not all military activities are classified as war.

If defense sounds so "sissy" for them, they could have called it department of the military, or department of the armed forces.

Airplanes of that era crashed all the time. The engines were really unreliable. And these MiG-21 airplanes are old as heck.
