Living in South Florida, about 2 miles from the beach, I'm not worried about my house becoming beachfront property in 50 years. It's NOT because I don't believe in rising sea levels- I remember when no one ever heard the word "king tide". During king tide season at high tide, the water is literally level with the top of the intercoastal seawall in Fort Lauderdale, and over it in many areas. This wasn't a seasonal occurrence 20 years ago. I'm not worried that the frequency and severity of our weather is getting worse and flooding areas that have never been flooded. What does worry me RIGHT NOW is the fact that all it takes is a hurricane hitting us during a king tide to wipe us out. People always worry or talk about the wind or wind speed, but it's the flooding that kills the most. We are not strangers to hurricanes, and the majority of our homes are built to take on mother nature, up to a point. So far, we've been lucky on the east coast with storm surge. If a cat 4 or 5 hurricane hits downtown Miami and it happens during king tide on the dirty side of of the storm, the results would be catastrophic given population density. Food for thought- can you imagine if everyone down here had electric vehicles and everyone had to plug in at the same time to get sufficient charge to hopefully evacuate and get far enough away? That amount of electricity would take down the grid and screw everyone.
I’m no engineerian nor a sciencer, but I think it’s wild people think the can “win” against the ocean. I did enjoy seeing Mar-a-Lago submerged under water though.
10:50 *This Bruce guy; the city engineer for Miami Beach* is awesome. He seems enthusiastic about these projects & is out there communicating w/ the blue-collar workers getting things done 🤙🏼
I mean, nothing against Bruce, but you do realize these are photo ops for a slick media piece? There is very little emphasis on any sort of realism in the filming. Maybe he is all about visiting the sites daily or something, but you should not form that conclusion from anything you see here.
Trump tries to not disgrace the people he needs to deal with, but it when they are outright imposters incapable of discussion and want to live in the Cold War days of the 1980s that resort to anything to maintain that from a COVID-19 pandemic, to wars across the world and running scams that ignore simple high school science its hard to not to disgrace them. It is likely best to disgrace them.
The appeal of that flat, gator infested, hurricane alley swamp is mind-boggling. Yeah, the beach is nice but...there are so many superior options for a warm climate locale.
Well, global warming stalled at about 1°C in 1992 with no known cause. In 2022 global warming was officially reported at 1.06°C. It is scientifically impossible for greenhouse gas behavior to cause global warming. All the greenhouse radiant energy from earth is completely absorbed in earth's greenhouse effect within 20 meters of the radiating surface that is always in saturation from the strong greenhouse gas water vapor. The Arctic region is warming the rest of the world is not.
There is no such thing as climate not changing so the weirdos are the ones who call it “Climate change” who have no clue about history of the world. Like you who can’t spell the governors name so you try to write like it sounds. I’ll educate you. Florida is a sandbar that rose out of the ocean. Death Valley used to be ocean. I know that’s deep but stay with me. Nature is cyclical and some cycles are long some short. That’s called diversity which people like you are big on. The fact people now live on some land that nature may reclaim is just life, like Venice flooding. The fact we can now record it better is also difficult for people like you who use short term information for long term predictions. Lastly, the answer and cause of these changes isn’t more government and money, that’s just how they trick you into their bizarre policies and taxations. They have no control over weather. The fact you are on social media contributing to the use of global warming says you don’t really believe it
Learn to spell.. Learn something about history of weather and things like Death Valley was once the ocean. Cycles, patterns, learn something because you need to, obviously.
Miami my home will be under water when we’re all gone. But I remember them building that new walk. It was so much traffic. It’s not working at all. My city is still going under
Same here. Humans have no problem killing off all the wildlife as they develop and destroy habitat but god forbid people's homes are destroyed because we think we are all powerful. Coastal areas should never be that developed. Miami is long due for another big hurricane too and I hope I'm here to see it.
About 40% of the world's population lives within 100 km (about 63 miles) of the ocean. When oceans rise, where will they live? Answer: Your living room.

Americans like to use the word ‘winning’.
That's why you're not an engineer or a scientist.

More the reason why property investments should be diverse in geologically and weather sound locations.
Walls won't help because the land is porous. From 2015 read The Siege of Miami in The New Yorker, basements already flooding
You rais e the street doesnt the water run to the lowest point , those residents and businesses are screwed
That is not the presidents compound, that is the former president current international disgraces compound.

I was thinking the same thing, also with a fuck you for saying that shit. I cut the video IMMEDIATELY.
.......and yet the building , sprawl and growth continues all along the East and West Coast of Florida ...

Do NOT worry DUH-santis says there is no such thing as climate change!! lol
Oh, thank goodness.
I was starting to get really worried. 😂
Yeah Ron! 🎉

Nothing to worry about. Your homeowners insurance in Florida wiil take care of you. Oh wait...

Increased co2 emissions caused by raising the streets
Hubris
Buncha fools
Next time could y'all use a better example other than Miami, it's been sinking since before it was settled.
Can't wait to see Florida under water. Go Mother Nature!
