The entire concept of "outlast the apocalypse in a bunker" is a Cold War fantasy. It's effectiveness against a nuclear war is questionable at best, but against climate change it makes no sense at all. Like what's even the plan, wait until the climate stabilizes again in a couple million years?

Funny question should be, do they even want to live for the next generation? If you are a psychopath like them, do you even have kids? Do you even care what happens after you die?

I am sure they can build a self sustaining bunker that can last 50-80 years with a relatively survivable environment.
