This is happening everywhere in borderline areas where irrigation was essential to productive farming. Nowhere is "safe", but going to more temperate areas is likely the best option.

A lot of countries have maps of how climate change will impact every area; I'd suggest you look there to see if they have that info.

Not sure about country specific, but the IPCC have a climate impact assessment tool: https://interactive-atlas.ipcc.ch/

Maybe I need to get out more, but I was thinking watching the first video on that page, why does this make me feel like I'm in some dystopian sci-fi game/movie and then I realised the voice and presentation style reminded me of the ingame videos from Doom 3 :).

So that's why Sweden and Finland joined NATO. United Fruit Company is moving north.
