is an evil bastard!

When asked about what he believes is causing massive storm surge responds with "...no one knows the reason."

Are you fucking kidding me?!

Project 2025 set to break up NOAA into smaller portions. Well, guess what? With the hurricanes getting more and more powerful, dangerous, prolific, we don't need this!

Scientists raise concerns after first-of-its-kind weather event shakes Earth for 9 days: 'We are in uncharted waters'

What's happening?

According to The Guardian, a landslide in Greenland triggered a megatsunami that sent seismic waves throughout the world. The landslide was a result of Earth getting warmer. The glacier that originally supported a 1,200-meter mountain peak started to melt and could no longer hold it up. This caused the peak to collapse into the fjord below, resulting in massive waves that led to seismic waves on Earth's surface.

The "extraordinary event" was the first to be recorded in eastern Greenland and destroyed a two-century-old Inuit site. Though no one inhabits the area, this indicates that an event like this hasn't happened in a very long time. It was also a stroke of pure luck that cruise ships and visiting scientists had vacated the area a few weeks before, so nobody was injured.

"We are in uncharted waters scientifically, because we don't really know what a tsunami does to a cruise ship," Kristian Svennevig of the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland told The Guardian.

In fact, it took 68 scientists across 40 institutions in 15 different countries to uncover the mystery of the event by using data collected by various sensors all over the world. Since the discovery, the research has been published in Science.

The MAGATs are still yelling "drill baby drill" stupid fucks.

I want to thank you for starting and participating in this thread. It started making me think past my garden. I’ve kind of isolated myself in the last few years, some from feeling my age and some from feeling pretty overwhelmed after Trump And Covid. Like I stuck my head in a hole and didn’t want to see past. But this thread has allowed me to explore. Baby steps. My garden club is very much tied to our local rotary club, which is giving a presentation to the community on the Local effects of climate change. It’s tomorrow and I’m going to Attend.

I think we need to clearly understand this is going to be our new world. We broke it and now we must buy it or at least the insurance companies must. As we don't even know what to fully expect, this past year has shown us how grim it will be. Prayers to the families and people now living this new reality.
