People keep building on the banks of the Mississippi river and nearby floodplain and it has been overflowing its banks almost every 10 years now for the past 40.
I was watching a Weather Channel special and some farming family had been flooded out three times and bailed out by the federal/state government three times.
Even after major inevitable climate change disasters happen many folk will keep trying to build back if no one stops them. Governments around the world are enabling this, look at the floods in Pakistan. Pakistan allowed 1000’s of towns and even small cities to be built in areas that were only habitable because of massive dam projects; however, once those dams reached critical levels there were zero plans for the consequences.
anybody remember the huge seawalls in Bladerunner 2049? we’re never building that shit
love it when my dystopian sci-fi isn’t pessimistic enough
lol the US can’t even maintain actually existing roads and bridges. There’s no chance of building some modern massive sea wall in dozens of population centers around the US.
what if enormous kaiju started coming through an interdimensional breach under the ocean
Apparently SpaceX was involved in the failed moon lander launch yesterday.
It was a moon orbiting capsule, not a lander. It was scrubbed (a very common occurrence for spacecraft) due to an engine temperature anomaly, not failed, and I think it was pretty much entirely SpaceX’s rivals in the ULA et al, who, to be fair, are just as bad in a slightly different direction. I’m not aware of any major SpaceX equipment being used on Artemis.
SpaceX can’t even get its moon rocket into space yet. Which is gonna be an issue soon since the NASA lander is supposed to be a moon-variant of Starship
Individuals claiming disbelief and sorrow, and then everyone else ignoring them until climate change hits them personally.
Basically the same stuff that’s been happening with Kentucky, and the fires in the Northwest, and Katrina.
This is already beginning with home insurance companies pulling out of Florida. Buildings will start to be abandoned, only the poor will live there, and eventually no one will as the water level rises and roads become impassable.
I don’t know but it’ll be drag queens story hour’s fault somehow
