Humor me - your article talks about investment companies building real estate right by the water. The articles tout large numbers, but are almost entirely vague as to what that money is used for.
The only things I see are pumps and raising roads… the Netherlands has been implementing both of those technologies for hundreds of years. I’m sure Florida, being a swamp, has has these kinds of issues before and has solved the issues similarly.
My point being - in the abstract, these sources do very little to convince one that the climate change prophecies are coming to fruition. I remember hearing cities would be flooded by 2020, not they need to raise the roads in problematic areas but real estate investment continues undeterred
- moistly 4y agoWell that’s a stunning denial of reality. Hundreds of billions on engineering projects as kayakers float past flooded cars — but “Miami isn’t flooding.” Good god.
