Florida proving you can be on fire and flooded at the same time
Don't say fire or flood law coming.
The world is looking to Florida to lead in climate change, and our government is saying that climate change is no longer the priority it once was
At the very least, I would expect them to want to talk about it, loudly. They're one of the places most strongly affected by draughts, hurricanes and a rising sea level.
I remember going to soflo, Miami beach area in 2018 and the streets were overflowing with salt water. You know those rectangular drains on the sides of roads under sidewalks? it was coming out of there. You'd think they would care more about the environment in that state but I guess not. Oh well, that's why I left. The woods I used to hang out in are now also perma-vacant single family homes.
