based assessments on the amount of arable land and population of cities submerged, and whether the countries had relocatable areas for said cities and arable land.
I don't think all the ice on top of Antarctica and Greenland is going to melt soon, but even if it takes thousands of years the heating needed for it does seem to be in motion.

Based on those climate reports from that Paul Cockshott video everywhere except for Canada, Greenland, Russia, Scandinavia, Northern Germany/Poland, and maybe Aregentina are Mad Max

I thought Canada gets bless from Climate change?

mass extinction. anything short of that is delusion

Perhaps I should have drawn more specific zones for Canada on the map, but I haven't made my criteria particularly consistent or scientific. Quebec City, Montreal, Ottawa and Vancouver all get dunked beneath the depths, which is quite significant; the parts of Nunavut which weren't connected got painted red though.
Canada probably should have been red, but I don't feel they benefit as much as Russia does simply because more of their existing population centres go under under water. Granted, that gives a whole lot of climate refugees to populate newly inhabitable lands.

Assuming the status quo continues this will probably be our future within the next 15 to 20 years if we don't get out shit together.
Also I'm just being pessimistic so I'm sorry if this is too defeatist.
Climate change, droughts, and floods completely devastate the Southern US making it essentially ungovernable. There might be some anarchist communes but knowing the south it's going to be bands of rednecks killing each other for fuel and food in jacked-trucks or airboats (depending on the terrain). Capital moves future North but there is still massive civil Unrest in every major city. Thousands of climate migrants try to go north but barbed wire and guards await them. Canada agrees to take some climate refugees to ease tensions as the negotiation for the new NAFTA agreement fails due to revolution in Mexico. Canada generally benefits from warmer temperatures so they need more workers for industry and agriculture. We'll probably start seeing megacities being built in Northern Canada to house all of these newcomers.
Brazil gets another Boslarano like leader and descends into chaos. Some economic zones are still open but it's mostly destruction from deforestation and conflict between pro-government forces and rebels. Rest of South America either descends into chaos or comes to its senses and enacts social democracy to prevent revolution/riots.
Africa gets fucked by climate change and becomes uninhabitable outside of designated free trade zones. South Africa sees race riots and general government dysfunction.
The refugees caused by climate change try to migrate to Europe causing the EU to shut the border and the resurgence of fascism. The nativist sentiment in Italy, Eastern Europe, and the UK is where it hits strongest. Migrant deaths occur daily. Northern Europe retains social democracy while Germany and central Europe becomes the safe haven of capital. France experiences more riots/unrest but it is mostly contained by EU security forces as most national militaries are used for the migrant crisis.
Russia also benefits from warmer weather and expands into the arctic causing tensions between Canada and the US.
Autocracy grips central Asia while Turkey and Iran maintain there military might and power.
Warmer temperatures make most of the Middle East uninhabitable except for certain mega-rich cities like Dubai which invests in terraforming/ecological engineering. India goes full revolution and the effects are felt all over Asia
China still participates in the Global Market(TM) but still implements some form of social democracy to keep with the Communist label. East Asia either follows suit or gets inundated by global warming. Singapore maintains their one-party autocracy.
Australia maintains capitalism but has a Trump-style leader who hatemongers against climate refugees and Asian immigrants from Indonesia. New Zealand remains largely isolationist and socially democratic. Any revolution is prevented by mass seizures of weapons.
All the islands like the Caribbean gets inundated by sea level rise and due to the breakdown of global trade there is less food being imported which means food riots and famine.
Can't believe I just wasted my time on all that shit.
