      Hi irishkipz
      I don’t know, but I’m not moving anywhere until I know they’ve got good wifi. 😀

      I don’t think so. It will take so much energy to relocate the whole planet…

      Hi Irishkipz,

      Moving planet is a long long way off (IMHO). We haven’t even got to Mars yet and we still need to find somewhere (close by) that can support life (or be changed to support life) before we can move. Climate change is happening right now and will continue over the next few centuries until we find a way (or change our activities) to stop or reverse it. Leaving Earth ain’t going to be the solution to global warming/climate change.
