Scott 20901 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Around 25 million people in California are under a flood watch this weekend as the latest in a parade of deadly storms drenches the state. Several waterways have flooded, at least 19 people have died and thousands have been told to evacuate their homes. In Montecito, a town 84 miles (135km) north-west of Los Angeles, locals say the rain aggravates their trauma. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-64279891 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pattaya Spotter 6878 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Strange all the state's woke climate policies, plethora of "green energy" initiatives, and war on the fossil fuel industry the past two decades hasn't ended "climate change." I guess they'll just have to try harder! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanaguma 5596 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 I will take the "climate crisis" more seriously when the doomsayers take it more seriously themselves. When hypocrites like Al Gore stop living in 4 houses. When ex-presidents who prophesize that the oceans are rising stop buying multimillion dollar beachfront property. When "Extinction Rebellion" stop buying iPads and eating at the Golden Armpits. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pattaya Spotter 6878 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 14 hours ago, RichardColeman said: Unless China stops building carbon belching stations its just a waste of time, just battering your populace on putting plastic in the right recycle tub of 20 recycle tubs That's the point of my post...nothing all the woke virtue signaling liberals have done to ruin California's energy grid and transportation system over two decades has slowed "climate change" even a second. But they can drown in the winter and burn in the summer in their good feelings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck with that! Tell less developed countries that they can't use whatever resources they have to enrich themselves... not gonna happen.

Pattaya Spotter 6878 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 Haven't Governor Newsome, and his predecessor Jerry Brown, done nothing but drone on for years about California being in a historic drought due to "climate change." Which is it...epic drought due to climate change or deadly storms and flooding? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bkk Brian 37955 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 From the OP article Nasa climate scientist "If we are unable to slow the warming of the atmosphere, we can expect to see more and more extreme events happening more and more frequently," Miner told the BBC, while surveying storm damage on a beach in Ventura. "And that's global. That's not just in California." Its possible, the world pulled together to reduce the ozone layer hole, a real scientific achievement that has avoided the catastrophic effects that would have occurred had it just been left to grow and grow. Tackling climate change is more of a challenge but even without some countries pulling their weight it is possible to slow and eventually reduce it, if you care about the future of humanity, your children and their children that is.
