Live in a rich country. Be wealthy. Don’t live too near the equator or too close to the sea. Live in an area with plentiful water and know how to purify it. Diversify your investments. Consider a stockpile of long lasting dry food to get yourself through price shocks. Install air conditioning. Install off grid solar. Buy air purifiers and a supply of filters. Remember to live for today and enjoy the world we have now.

So in other words: You can't.
Be wealthy doesn't have to mean "be a multi-millionaire". It can mean trying to save enough to be able to take a large blow. Everyone is going to be knocked down a peg by climate change, so try your damndest to make sure you aren't a bottom peg.
I think "be wealthy" is the key advice.

Whatever happens with the climate, I'm sure Bill Gates will be fine.

Most can’t. Some might.
