New Zealand Is Rated The Best Place To Survive A Global Societal Collapse

Daily Mail: America fails to make it into the top five places most likely to survive the end of the world because its giant borders make it vulnerable to mass migration, study finds 

* The US just missed the top 5, in part because it's close to 'external' megacities 

* Such cities are vulnerable to displacement and could cause a migrant crisis 

* It ranked high on its amount of fertile land and manufacturing capabilities 

* New Zealand took the top spot, thanks to its temperate climate and isolation 

* Other countries in the top 5 include Iceland, Australia, Ireland and the UK 

In a worst-case scenario fueled by climate change - a total global collapse - the U.S. isn't among the Top 5 countries well-positioned to survive, according to a new study. 

That's because its giant land borders make it vulnerable to migration from people who would be trying to escape climate disasters in their own countries: Think streams of people pouring over the southern border from Mexico or the northern border from Canada, for instance. 

Still, the U.S. would have fallen somewhere just out of the Top 5, the researchers at Anglia Ruskin University in the U.K. told DailyMail.com.
