Meanwhile, Climate Change Don't Care About Politics, Disaster, Risk, Seasons



Unheard of bankruptcies by "bedrock" companies is the new future.

No ego-fights over economic or political "risk," "exposure" will save us.

We are now in a human killing era that our little pockets still refuse to pay anything to slow down.

Come ON, Pentagon, act like you really know what your declaration of #1 National Security Threat REALLY means.

A universal framework for addressing cascading disasters still needs to be developed.

A global system that can predict the interactions between natural and built environments MIGHT save millions of lives and billions of dollars.

Most important, community outreach and public education must be prioritized to raise awareness of the potential risks cascading hazards will cause.

I'll keep looking. I hope others do, too.

We have individual vids of individual disasters, but something more sweeping creates the planetary scope of the problem.

I'd recommend Leo DiCaprio's short documentary. Maybe I'll repost it.
