who seems to ignore the “stern warning” given to his own state — specifically Northeast Ohio — about increased flooding and extreme temperatures.

It’s because he thinks climate change will only affect non-white people in other parts of the world. Prepare yourself for a lot more of this environmental racism as climate change gets worse:
"Like Naomi Klein said in 2020 as Australia burned and the coronavirus had not yet infected the globe: “If you convince those people climate change really is real, or if it just becomes so obvious that they can no longer deny it, they don’t suddenly want to sign onto the Paris Agreement. What actually happens is they apply that intensely hierarchical supremacist worldview to the reality that what climate change means is that the space for people to live well on this planet is contracting… In other words, the racism will get worse.”
