For me American prison sounds a lot worse than whatever comes from climate change, so personally I'd pick that.

For now. Give it a few decades when the effects of climate change start forcing people out of their homes, cause widespread crop failure, kill thousands with heatwaves and storms, etc.

If you're choice is between

losing your home, starving to death, or in some way dying in the streets

losing your home, starving to death, or in some way dying in the streets after holding those responsible to account a la the adjuster

More and more people will choose option 2.

You're more likely to die in a heat wave in prison right now.

IDK maybe that's more reason to fight, just to the death.

For now that's the case. But if there ever becomes a time when life outside of prison means starving to death, dying in a heat wave or storm, it won't matter.

People still have things to lose. But people are losing things.
