Is Population increase in your area possible?

[Devonian]

I understand where you are coming from, but I just do not believe that any modern government is capable of organising this sort of mass evacuation; nor would those being evacuated want to go; nor is there actually anywhere for them to go to, in terms of domestic housing stock.

Also as per my other posting, bear in mind that 90% of the UK's population currently live in Cities (that is a staggering figure which really surprised me) and this alone makes the idea of evacuations, other than from small directly affected areas, a non-starter.

Also you need to think about the on-going logistics, for example if the government moves everyone from area 1 to area 2, then all of the utilities; food; medical infrastructure etc would also need to be moved as well - not really so easy to do.
