      It's neither. It's greedy developers paving everything over-the water has nowhere to go. This rain was not worse than Harvey and other rains before, yet I saw a lot of streets underwater that had never flooded before. Which may very well put judgement into the equation-We reap what we sow.

      Flooding only happens when you live or build at or below the historic high water mark. The earth has been warming and the sea levels have been rising for the last 20,000 years, ever since the Last Glacial Maximum. Flooding happens when you ignore history.

      Let's entertain that idea.
      What would be the reason? What would the government be getting out of causing catastrophic weather disasters?
      When there is a disaster, the local, state and federal government spends billions of dollars on recovery and clean up, so what would the government reasoning be to cause weather catastrophes if they're just going to spend billions of dollars after the occurrence? Why would the government choose a flood prone area to create a man made weather disaster? Would it not make more sense to just wait for the inevitable flooding and/or hurricane? Especially when you consider that most flood insurance is government issued because private insurance carriers won't insure flood prone areas, the government then has insurance claims to pay in addition to the disaster funds they spend. What wouldthe government be getting out of it?

      @@frankmartin8471 lol, right wing math. And, realistically the CO2 levels rising over a long period of time wouldn't be as disaster. The speed over a short period of time is the killer.
      _In May 2013, at the time of the usual annual maximum of CO2, the air briefly tipped over the 400 ppm mark for the first time in several million years. In 2014, it stayed above 400 ppm for the whole month of April. By 2015, the annual average was above 400 ppm._
      _To find a time when the planet’s air was consistently above 400 ppm you have to look much farther back to the warm part of the Miocene, some 16 million years ago, or the Early Oligocene, about 25 million years ago, when Earth was a very different place and its climate totally dissimilar from what we might expect today._
