I cant even to begin to imagine just how LOUD that water is. That is terrifying.

[@armedrodent7840]

Keep cutting the rain forest down. The water in the atmosphere has to go somewhere. Pretty easy to put 2 and 2 together. We need to take control of the rain forest and stop irresponsible people from destroying it

If trump gets elected US president or his party is the majority, all of them are for profits and not ecology. All their followers believe climate change is bad science. On the other hand, doddering as he may be Biden & the Dens do believe in climate change

[@hanniros2458]

Indeed, the water has to go somewhere ! But there is more water in the atmosphere because of higher temperatures. Clausius Clapeyron: the warmer the atmosphere, the more water it can hold ! So cutting down the trees won’t help, the ‘illnesses’ is that fossil fuels make the atmosphere warmer, because of the greenhouse effect. So stop emitting them will help actually…

Increased global rain and snow due to the explosive under sea eruption of Hunga Tonga. On Jan 15, 2022. It shot large amounts of water droplets into the stratosphere, which will cause increased rain, flooding, and more snow for years to come. Look up Hunga Tonga eruption 2022.

Anyone check to see if anything hinky was going on at Gibidim dam in Switzerland? I mean they could have increased the flow gradually. Instead of just open the whole dam. This some French passive aggression or foreign interference at the migration problem? There are a few dams....can't tell you which one was the problem because you didn't give me a city location that got flooded. Place Moulin Dam perhaps? The Source of this water is the Tete Blanche. Any work going on up there or is it just global warming? A bunch of skiers were found dead up there in March. I'd check for someone trying to steal water. Like from India. Maybe something they were doing up there backfired.
