Five US states where climate change could be disastrous

Texas

Texas is a case of extremes. In Climate Central's analysis, it's the state expected to have the greatest threat from drought and wildfires by 2050 and the second-greatest threat from extreme heat - a total of 115 dangerous heat days per year.
Yet the state does not include heat or drought in its current emergency management plan, never mind future planning.
In a statement, the Texas department of public safety said they participate "in a yearly threat and risk assessment to ensure all likely hazards are included in preparedness efforts for the state".
Sorry, bro :(

not to worry. Donald Trump will build a wall out of freedom to keep out climate change (which as everyone knows is caused by muslims and socialism)

plained you are familiar with the concept of peer-reviewed scientific journals right? Check there for credible information on climate change.

I can help you find stuff although I doubt you'd need help.

internet argument:

*factual statement*
"provide evidence!"

Down the south end is. The north end is for the beautiful people (that's why I go there) and it's mad for perving.

The problem with climate change is that the media just can't properly expose it to the public.

In scientific circles, there's no doubt that climate change is a thing and there's no real doubt that mankind has a real influence on our climate as well. However, when this subject is discussed on TV, there's always this need to show "both sides" of the story, so you'll have a climate scientist sitting in the studio, as well as some kind of moron who denies climate change is a thing.

The problem here is that the scientist can only convince people that climate change is a thing by showing numbers, statistics, factual research and other really, really boring stuff. The moron, on the other hand, will only have to spew cookie cutter bullshit which is lapped up by the general public like sweet honey.

And thus the idea that there's doubt about climate change, or that it's a controversial subject is born.

i think its a horse b4 the cart thing

remember pollution? lol no one does or cares, its right down the street, to hands on? to personal , to hard to upsetting? yea thought so

climate change sooo much more convenient,comforable, non-upsetting, non confrontational to the dangerous repercussions , repost some spam, share on shitbook, post a fucking links from bs 10 diff (all the same) java drawn sites, join a parade , have a nice talk and go to a useless summit OK

its a nice popular non productive way to do nothing, comfortable impersonal, not dangerous and useless

dutch news tv must be shit then

actual denialists target elected representatives with bribes; they don't waste their time in a news studio where they'll be seriously challenged in public
