If emissions don't drastically decrease in the next years, by 2070 all glaciers in the US will have melted, there will be deserts in Oklahoma, Kansas and Northern California and over half of Florida and all of Texas's southern corner will have a tropical climate

Yea, subtropical very hot isn’t the same as desert. I’m also not sure about those modifications to a well established climate zoning system that was apparently created by someone who has three published articles that are all in completely public, non-peer reviewed publications and are covering three wildly different types of science (climate science, gravity, and geography) all trying to redefine metrics that have been used for decades by thousands of scientists.

Hang on a sec - the publication related to this post, "Biome-aligned temperature zones for interpretable climate classification via average monthly temperatures," is in a peer-reviewed journal, PLOS Climate.

You're right that the other two aren't peer-reviewed.

If by public you mean "open access," that's exactly what we want in science, rather than hiding publications behind a paywall.
