A ‘worrying confluence’ of flood risk, social vulnerability and climate change denial

2. From the Rules for Human Living:

   *Lessons are repeated until learned.*

3. What? You mean Florida?

4. The Appalachia region is particularly interesting, there.

   Also this map puts my in mind of the book “The Dictator’s Handbook” – from this map, areas with primarily extractive economies line up extremely well with climate denial, with pretty obvious inferences to be drawn regarding the respective education or the need for education in those areas. Flooding risk is almost purely a factor of geography, deliberate lack of understanding climate patterns is artificial

5. I used to have a bumper sticker that said “nature bats last”. maybe I need to find another one.

   it’s amazing watching people walking into climate disaster with eyes wide shut.
