Maybe rethink that a little bit. Both of my children are adopted A girl and a boy. We received each one when they were 10 weeks old. Both the product of a teenage girls around 16 years of age. Neither were drug addicts. just young girls that made a mistake...



That's a little different story. A 16 year old girl isn't an adult. I'm talking about the 10000's or 100,000's of children whose parents are older, not children themselves. I know grandparents who are raising their grandchildren because their adult children walked away from them.

Good for you Hondo.

Unfortunately, you can't save the world by allowing them to all come to the USA. And if you try, you're going to have nothing in the host country for anyone.

Yes and humans are the cause of global warming

Within the next hundred years, cities like Miami, Baltimore and New York may become unlivable, so even here there may be serious issues of how we house and feed tens of millions of people. We won't live to see the worst of it, but it's almost certainly coming. Toy trains will be the least of the problems for our great-great grand children. Making solar and wind/ocean tide power cost effective could save hundreds of millions of lives.


But Biden is going to save the planet just as soon as he can get everyone to stop using fossil fuels

Git those wind turbine and solar panels working. China will sell us everything we need as they produce it using coal and other fossil fuels :wink:

Bolt neck says it’ll be over in 9 years and AOC says 12 years so I’m going to burn all the fossil files I can for now. Figure I may as well do my part. No sense in pro longing the inevitable.

Is it possible for anyone to be dumb enough to actually believe claims that sea levels will rise any except normal amount. Try to buy some ocean front property or even in a sea town here!

Try having a sea-level or basement home in Venice :!:

Plus, there is a section of Lower Manhattan, on the Westside, which has been in trouble for quite some time , now, and it's expected to get worse.

He's in CA where the think it's nice waiting for the place to fall into the ocean, burn to a crisp, or get run over by mudslides. The ocean coming up there would be a mercy.

I've heard New Orleans has been giving the rise in worldwide sea levels some serious consideration .

Well, no one can exactly predict the future. It might take many decades for sea levels to rise another foot, or the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets could slide into the ocean and raise sea levels many feet in the next few years. No one knows, but it's happening and will get worse according to those who know anything about the science. I'm guessing you are a scientific illiterate and political radical who doesn't believe any scientific information that doesn't confirm your belief structures. Good news is that you probably won't see the worst of it by far. But it's almost certainly going to happen. Miami is already raising sidewalks and other similar fixes that won't survive the worst of the warming climate and rising sea levels, which have been going on slowly for many decades at this point. East coast cities are particularly at risk because sea level has risen much faster there, probably due to changes in the ocean currents.

Watch any of the "Earth" or "Planet" series or any nature type program that deals with the sea and decide for yourself, but it's easy to see the polar icecaps are receding (melting) and sea levels do rise when this has happened in the past. Don't care to discuss if this is caused be a natural cycle or caused by humans and global warming, but it sure appears to be happening. Or it can be viewed as "fake news". :roll:

As for land values of seafront property, rising water won't stop the people in our world. Once it becomes evident to them its really happening, they'll be looking to insurance companies or the government to cover their ignorance. Seems to be the way we are today. :?

After every big storm the beaches of South Carolina, Georgia nd Florida must be "replenished" even though the next storm will take away the replenishment. With this and the rising sea levels permission is still given to build near the shore. Money, money, money.

It's good point that you don't have to believe in human contributions to climate change to acknowledge that sea levels are rising and global temperatures are rising. Survival into the next warm spell or ice age will depend on using solar, wind, tidal and geothermal energy sources. Fossil fuels are going to be less useful and more expensive to deal with those changes. And fossil fuels contribute to microparticulates in the air, particularly from coal and petroleum products. These microparticulates cause lung, heart and other diseases and measurable mortality. So promoting coal is another way of killing people.

Not only just microparticulates, but surprising amounts of released radioactive particles.....

Sometimes it's useful to remember that half the population is below average in intelligence. We don't want these people making public health policy for the rest of us :).
