    Welcome to my channel, Today I have the opportunity to be helping in Naples, but the devastation and the stories I've heard make me realize no matter what, you always have to be grateful for what you have......
    The stories are not good ones though....😞😔 My heart goes with all the families that are suffering because of this hurricane watching this in person is shocking we're here to help!

      Here is the sad reality... this area is getting the most support because it's where the money is. Go to the lesser areas and see the work not being done. Port royal has police/sheriff/private security on every street to stop looters, while the outer areas are left to fend for themselves. It's horrible for everyone what happened, but to see daily how this area has thousands working to make it look normal as soon as possible while lesser areas are still in the dark. It's gross.

    I work one of the condos here on gulf shore, as part of the 24 hr security. Something I can't emphasize enough, no photo or video that I took could compare to actually being here. Being in it genuinely felt like a really bad dream. No one where I work was hurt, and fortunately most buildings have a lobby on the first floor and the water didn't make it into the units on the second floor, some even having a first floor garage and second floor lobby so they didn't suffer too bad. A lot of our neighbors have been getting power back the last few days, and as I'm typing I'm here waiting for fpl to show up to start the re-energizing process. So to leave it on a positive note, we are recovering, pretty swiftly in some parts. It'll be months before life's normal again, but we'll make it.

      I saw the global ocean temperature measurement chart that's actually live in NASA's website. Global ocean temperatures are on the rise expect to see more deadly hurricanes in the future. Hurricane Ian traveled over the loop current. It caused ocean temperatures to be 3° higher than normal. That is absolutely rocket fuel for hurricanes. In 1988 Dr James Hansen made the prediction based on physics formulas that in the future if carbon dioxide was not reduced in the atmosphere, that larger hurricanes including wetter hurricanes that are traveling slower than past hurricanes, more flooding events, bigger heat waves and larger droughts would occur. Humans are 100% responsible for burning coal oil and natural gas and releasing that carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. I want to let you know that this has happened before 55 million years ago. Dr James Hansen stated that the carbon dioxide was volcanic in nature. That it caused the Atlantic Meridian overturning circulation to come to almost a complete stop. It caused hurricane strength to extend into the category 5 and category 6 and possibly category 7 strengths. He showed evidence by pointing the camera a massive chunk of coral reef the size of a house sitting on a beach at a Caribbean Island. The water pressure from the hurricane was so great it ripped it off the bottom of the ocean and carried it up onto the beach

    Very informative video, and well done. We Canadians enjoy going to this area to look at the beautiful homes from time to time. We understand that many of these people who have 10-$15 million dollar homes down on that beach lose too... and their loss is real, just like the rest of us, but chances are they are not wondering where their next meal is coming from, unlike those poor souls who lost everything in the mobile parks or wooden neighborhoods... My winter home was damaged in South Fort Myers and I sit there and fret about it being repaired, but I realize I am being selfish, and I know that we are lucky, and its those with no insurance and no safety net that are suffering the most and all we should do collectively is try to help one another.

      I now live in Kentucky, but I lived in Miami when Hurricane Andrew came through I lived in Naples with Irma Charlie Wilma Katrina all of those I just moved to Kentucky just last year...
      So far I don't really seen one tornado came through here.. We live below a hill here So the tornado totally missed us Thank you Lord However My grandchildren are still there My children are still there and they lost so very much Luckily FEMA has stepped up quickly While my grandchildren lost their eight million dollar home They received quickly 275,000 dollars Now this is nowhere near what their property was worth but luckily They do not have to wait long at all they will still be able to buy a decent house and I don't know what their insurance situation was I just pray that they were all right... somehow getting through this mental anguish they are now old enough to understand it all
      I know that they are upset because this house that they will buy will not be anything near like what they lived in that was paid in pools There's no way it could even come close But if they could see the families that had absolutely nothing that will not get FEMA then they would understand So I hope that God will bring him to a place where they can understand that even though they only got 275 thousand dollars almost a quarter of a million have very blessed they truly are Excuse me just over a quarter of a million
      Thanks to all the people going there to help out this is a challenge just look at that place oh my it is scary looking and they were not expecting it I knew it was going to be a bad one and everybody laughed at me I just had that feeling and I know many people did I read it everywhere the way the waters have been and with the ice melting this is horrible it could have been a lot worse than it was so we all need to really think about what we're doing to this planet everybody help each other I pray that there are no looting no evil-minded people this world is just not the same quite scary really Lord please just bless them and give them the strength they need to get through this it's going to be a rough one but you guys can do it Naples people are a very special Unique Kind of people love you all praying for you all I know you guys can do this stay pulled together concentrate on helping your neighbors do whatever you can for the guy that doesn't have any clothes left that lost all of his clothing let alone his jewelry and find things and things that they had saved up and put away for safekeeping Lord help those people and help the people of Naples to all come together as one enter Naples back into what it used to be

      @@Clintscollectiblez I researched at the pogenic climate change and I monitor Global terrestrial sea and surface temperatures of planet Earth. NASA has a link on their website and they are showing a rapid increase of sea surface temperatures in particular from the year 2000 to 2020. CO2 emissions generated by humans is a greenhouse gas. A CO2 is a byproduct of burning coal oil and natural gas which includes the diesel and gasoline. When you have a planet of 7.8 billion humans they generate last year 36 billion tons of carbon dioxide. That CO2 is added to the previous years and previous Decades of CO2. CO2 stays in the atmosphere for hundreds of years. Don't ask me why but that's what I got from at least two senior scientists. One of the senior scientists mentioned this in the documentary, Nova can we cool the planet! That's located on UA-cam. It may be just the nature of carbon dioxide reacting with thermal infrared heat every time infrared heat energy hits the molecule it pushes it higher up and the atmospheric column. This prevents it from being reabsorbed by trees and terrestrial land flora and ferna. 90% of the heat energy that is in the atmosphere is reabsorbed by the world's oceans. Oceans can absorb hundred times more heat than what is in the atmosphere. The mathematical equivalent is 17 * 10 to the 22nd Jewels heat energy that is equivalent of five Hiroshima thermal nuclear bombs per second. Every year the heat absorption rate continues to increase. This will increase the extreme danger of future hurricanes.

      Growing up in Florida and spending all my childhood 1970s and 80s summers in Florida, I've seen many hurricanes. It's not so much about climate change as it about the jet stream and the summer and water temperatures. Devastating hurricanes have been ripping through the Caribbean and Florida and on record since 1523...
      Thee strongest tropical cyclone to make landfall on the state was the 1935 Labor Day hurricane. Hurricane Ian 2022 is definitely in the top ten.
      When I was a kid, Captiva Island was a wildlife sanctuary and Sanibel was barely inhabited by permanent residents, hell they didn't even spray pesticides on these islands... they should've never allowed massive construction to occur... but money and greed usually exceed logical common sense.... until fear shows up, then everyone gets smart after it's too late.... damn that rear view mirror is always correct....

      @@tonyp0922 I just saw an amateur photographer hiding behind the structure of a building showing what winds can do to the metal framework of a gas station Pump Station roof. The winds were 150 mph from Hurricane Charley that's correct name. It was unbelievable and I was shocked I was really shocked that the frame the structural part of the roof stood in place. But it shredded ripped out the panels from the metal roof. It was ungodly loud. Yeah I I do want to say to everybody that I do research anthropogenic climate change. Not quite at the University level I mean I've had kinematic physics. But atmospheric physics is on a whole new level. I don't really need to look at the math I can just see the increasing trend of more record rainfall flooding events. More flooding events that are occurring in Australia in the last 20 years than the last 120 years. 20 years ago NOAA created a ocean temperature monitoring system called the Argo float system. These are a little robots that actually sink in the depths of the ocean and measure the salinity because the ocean salinity is actually divided does not mix very well. So it transmits back 3,000 temperature readings to the satellites. The receiving station accepts this data and then of course it sent to a server. I would assume that Noah and universities take that raw data and his GPS location and show the world that the global oceans are actually increasing in temperature to very dangerous levels. This is partially why hurricane Ian was so destructive. The hurricane I crossed over the loop current that comes in from the tip of Africa and it was three degrees hotter than normal. That 3° is huge when it comes to energy from the ocean. That is why the winds reached 150 mph and the storm surge was up to 12 ft High. Hurricanes like this will become very common in the near future and increase in wind speeds and storm surge height. There might be a few hurricanes that are weaker after this one but overall within the next hundred years they'll be significantly larger. Carbon dioxide the waste product that comes from your tailpipe of your boat of your car I'll planes train ships everything that burns coal oil and natural gas is contributing to the overheating of planet Earth by trapping Heat and not allowing it to go into space.

    The Insurance companies and Co-Part should tow the damaged cars and boats to a large lot for auctions. After Katrina the damaged cars were left under the freeways where they were vandalized. When furniture and appliances are left at the curb, they should be considered free to the takers before being hauled away. What's left over should be taken to the dump. Separate aluminum and steel from the plastics for recycle then rebuild on higher ground. For Sanidel and Fort Myers find a architect and Contractor that can build a reinforced steel trailer to withstand storm surge and bolt them to the concrete foundations. Somebody invent a 3 ft high rubber band skirt to surround a house, especially the doors to be used in the event of a flood. I pray for the families suffering in Florida. Think outside the box so the same mistakes are not repeated.
