400ppm & no one is even closely serious to addressing climate change. The human race is in for a rough ride. I thought I would not even see the beginning of it, but every week is a new report stating, things are "accelerating faster than our models predicted."
Your best bet is to position yourself as good as you can in terms of environment & economy. Head north to communities where the money is. The rich drop lots of crumbs off the table, but you have to live close to get them. It is usually more expensive.
I will close with this. When I was a young girl, about 14, my mother showed my her WWII ration booklets. She was just a little girl, but even she was allotted ration stamps. My grandmother oversaw them. In today's world of diminishing resources, there are not going to be ration stamps. Your ration stamps will consist of how much money/credit you have. We are no longer all in this together. You're on your own.
In a just society, there is no limit to how high one can climb, but there is a limit to how far one can fall.
