And almost all of them have plenty of other benefits too:

Multifamily housing is generally cheaper in high land cost areas. It helps solve the housing shortage.

More bikes and transit and fewer cars means cleaner air and fewer traffic deaths.

Less fossil fuel usage in general means less pollution.

Cities that use land more efficiently tend to be more walkable, pleasant, and don't gobble up things like farmland or forests outside the city.

Come to think of it, less beef is probably better for your health, too.

My advice is to install air conditioning, and choose a place to live that will be affected as little as possible. Avoid the Maldives or New Orleans, perhaps choose somewhere a little hilly and cool with good connectivity.

Great suggestions. I will pass your advice on to literally all of humanity.

That's what will happen, you might as well get ahead of the rush.
