the naysayers are still going strong no matter what - here's some more grist for the mill

Septic tanks in parts of the Miami are failing due to rising seas

lots of stinky non functioning toilets and putrid smelling homes -

millions of homes in the South that are dependent on septic tanks and are at risk

it will cost billions to fix the problem and it's a very slow process



it's a really shi**y situation

Kind of hard to believe. Seeing as sea levels have not had any real rise. I stopped reading at "sea level surge" as that alone makes it a joke.

oh, right man

the Washington Post just makes stuff up

somebody there just dreams something and then they publish it if the Editor feels like it

I think they just flip a coin to decide whether or not they will publish it

there's nothing at all respectable about that newspaper

as usual you're right on the money

thanks again for another brilliant comment

nobody can fool you

Maybe one day you will learn to read critically. Maybe you will one day learn there is an agenda. Did you ever notice all the news outlets started saying "climate emergency" at the same time? Or were you a sheep who thought all of the sudden we are in an "emergency?"

what a joke that you are imagining that you read critically

all you do is discard anything as trash that has a point of view that conflicts with your agenda

I don't recall any news outlet saying "climate emergency" - I recall climate change

the realization of the potential risks of climate change came from scientists

but you're a lot smarter then those scientists - nobody could doubt that

calling people "sheep" - I could call you some names but I'll refrain -

thanks for the laugh -

go ahead and get the last word

someone as sharp as you deserves it

share with everybody some more of your critical wisdom

it's all yours - I'm done

as far as it goes, I'm ready to believe that climate change, warming, and ocean rise will continue since it has been going on since the last ice age. What is the human contribution?

I'd like to see us get off being so dependent on fossil fuels if only for the possibility that it reduces pollution [some current ideas have their own pollution problems]

No, I discard trash. I have no agenda.

Then you had better pay closer attention, they have been using the term for 3-4 years now as "climate change" had lost its impact.

I have given multiple scientific reasons anyone should be a skeptic on the matter. But for you it is easier for "the scientists" to do your thinking for you I suppose.

extreme heat in Miami - records have been broken - and it's only May

"Not only is it insane it's dangerous" said John Morales a meteorologist

"It's completely crazy what just happened," said Brian McNoldy a senior research analyst at the U. of Miami

from the article:

"the heat index reached 112 this past Saturday and Sunday breaking the previous daily record by an astonishing 11 degrees"
