    He took this storm. seriously, he wasn’t even on vacation for the week after the storm hit.

    He even stopped trolling for a few days, for once. Must be hard for him.

    True. And if there were absolutely no people on this planet there would still be hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, earthquakes, etc. etc. Nothing has changed.

    Many honey bee colonies are submerged in water and in distress, the bureau said, threatening pollination.

    Shit, I never even thought of that. Normally hives are moved to higher ground when a storm comes through but the experts were wrong about both the track and the intensity, maybe there was no time once it was figured out what was happening.
    The bottom line is that conservatives cant admit to themselves the Evil they have allowed to romp on their watch.

    This is going to hurt.

    Yes, it has. The geological record shows how human activities have altered our atmosphere. Those changes have been detrimental to the climate we are used to.

    How do I know ? The warnings have been sounded for at least the past fifty years- and now it's in all the papers.

    Well, now that we have satellites and global news networks, the frequency that they are reported has increased.

    I'd like to see your data that U.S. hurricanes have increased in frequency since the Little Ice Age ended.

    That's as may be- but the concern is the detrimental effect of human activity on the hitherto stable climate of today.

    That’s true. There would still be all of those climactic events.

    The other part is not true. In fact, there ARE people on this planet. Billions of them. And their lives are affected in a major way due to climate change.

    I am really looking forward to some discussion about how the new building codes did....Florida was pretty sure that they did that right....this was the first really good test.

    ^^^ #10 admits he's a Chinese Commie by suggesting workers to accept higher building costs or submit to government housing.

    Fuck you Commie! God Bless America!

    New building codes imposed and enforced by whom, #10?

    New building codes on existing houses?

    My guess is twofold: this will turn into an economic disaster for everyone but the rich, and DeSantis will try to blame it on everyone but himself.
