Whatever it is, the state of Florida is insuring more and more of Florida's residential real estate. I'm waiting for the state government to have a really bad year, to the point they go bankrupt.

Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.
As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades:
How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world:

Step teasing me with possible good news!
Of course he's going to say that. If he admitted climate change was wrecking his state then he would be forced to take action. It's much easier to stick his fingers in his ears and continue letting oil companies do whatever they want. What does he care? He only has a couple more years in office anyways. He'll be gone by the time the shit really hits the fan. This rainfall is just a sample of what's to come.
Shits already hitting the fan world wide. People are losing houses. Insurance is becoming unaffordable. People are dying.
It'll just affect more people.
"Climate change isn't re-blub blub blub!" >:(
Oh, here we are again in the hands out, crying for help and funds portion of the "no guv'ment!!!" and "we're gonna sucede!!!!" crowd.
Is your raised truck not high enough for you to take shelter from the floods in? Can't you hang your wet clothes to dry from the "rolling coal" pipe you have? Can you use those 27 trump flags made of asbestos as a blanket to warm you?
Maybe as you're waiting for the "guv'ment" to come rescue you like a frightened fairytale princess, feed you with taxpayer dollars and repair your uninsurable without "guv'ment" help homes.... Maybe you could just float on your back in the water while you wait and think about your stance on climate change?
And remember, as your elderly neighbor's dead body floats by next to you, you can always use all your left over "Joe Brandon, I DID THAT!!!" gas pump stickers to put over their eyes and mouth to keep them closed.
Ok then bye
"Weatherz are woke libz!!! Rain is a Chinese Jewish CRT and if you ingest the water, Hunter Biden did the chemicals in it so you're a trans! If trump could diarrhea in this water, even up high from his gold helicopter, floods would all melt and turn into enough nachos for everyone and beer and we'd have a second super bowl, but instead DEMZ locked him in prison for being Jesus and making a most BEAUTIFUL phone call!!!" My penis don't work guud and it's frustrationing cuz I want to use it for gay and not tell anyone else at church!!!!"
