There have been two recent volcanic eruptions that have sent plumes of matter into the stratosphere: Tonga in January 2022 and Ruang in April 2024. The former ejected 150 million tons of SEAWATER (containing ~5 million tons of salt)and ash to a height of 58 km (190,000 ft); the Ruang eruption sent ash and sulfur dioxide to a height of 25 km (82,000 ft). Bear in mind that the Tambora eruption in 1815 resulted in Europe's infamous "Year Without a Summer" some 18 months later.

[@D.von.N]

Good to know, just in 1815 there wasn't a climate warming problem, so the factors are stacked up a bit differently today. We would actually benefit from some ash shielding a bit of the sunlight from our atmosphere these days, temperature wise.

I live next to a two mile long road going up a hill, in heavy rain the road turns into a torrent, but if you step into the woods alongside the road the ground is just wet.

Agreed. Fuel-consumption climate change policies are an easier sell than admitting human overpopulation is real and global urbanization to accommodate an unnaturally large population will bring yet more rain and flooding.

[@nofuxCZ]

Urbanisation is definitely an issue, but in some places, a year worth's of rain fell in just 4 days. Such amount of rain in such a short time can't be absorbed by the natural ground, urbanisation or not.

Don't build in delta regions

[@RussTillling]

Maybe less sheep & cattle compacting the floodplains and wetland areas reintroduced back into the floodplains would be useful.

[@tjevans3025]

We know that our changing climate is affecting us now, and what this should tell people, is that as extreme events will continue faster and more often. Our financial ability to rebound from the devastation will, at some point, become untenable.

Our prayers for the flooded victims .May the flood recede quickly .🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️

[@Rac-fpv]

All the people praying on KZbin can't be praying hard enough, there's a new flood every other day. I wonder if science would be a better solution.

The global warming begining signs

[@andrewandres148]

Solar patterns...... CME's, solar cycles, Earth's magnetic North drifting... Earths magnetic field weakening...... Climate patterns is what this is......

[@beyondfossil]

​@@andrewandres148 Those factors have much less "climate forcing" than the massive amount of carbon we're putting into the atmosphere. We need to greatly reduce fossil fuel use, period. Basically, we're digging carbon out from deep within the Earth's crust where it's been sequestered out of the biosphere for millions of years. But now all of that is expelled at a massive 37 *billion* metric tons per year are expelled as we're using the atmosphere as a free to use public toilet. The atmospheric CO2 concentration is now at over 422ppm which is more than it's been in about 4-million years all in just 200-hundred years since the start of the Industrial Revolution. The chart of CO2 concentrations from the past 300+ years looks like a hockey stick! Sure, the climate is always changing but natural changes occur over millions of years not just a few hundred years. The biosphere, let alone human infrastructure, cannot cope with this extreme rate of change.

[@andrewandres148]

@@beyondfossil The carbon in the atmosphere is concluded to be the cause of climatic pattern changes (Notice the word patterns).... The Carbon is a result of the warming, it is not the cause... Not in the way preached today... And to note, the USA, Canada, Europe has already been cutting the emissions... But the fervor and rabid blind obedience without any questions about the true science of patterns is nothing short of 'The New Religion'

[@trommelbiel]

Please respect my right to pray. Science cannot be better than the God who created the nature that Science barely understands.

[@Rac-fpv]

@@trommelbiel no, I’m sorry but I’m sick to death of seeing pray for…….. every other day. If it wasn’t for people believing in iron age superstitions instead of listening to provable science, we might actually make some headway fighting climate change. Either your God gets turned on by killing people with floods or has no power. Either way, writing “pray for” on Google is pathetic.

[@themanape]

@@Rac-fpv Lol... all the scientists must be slacking at their job, surely they should have science the floods away by now

[@trommelbiel]

Well l love God and l will continue to pray for the good people of Poland, Romania and the Czech Republic 🇨🇿. Nobody is fighting your science. Stop fighting God.

Bhavishya Malika predictions This is an extremely important message. The end of Kaliyuga has already occurred, which was completed on August 1, 1943. Now we are entering a golden transformation - the arrival of Satyuga is certain by 2032. In the coming times, the world will face many challenges, including continental catastrophes, natural disasters, and more than 60 epidemics, whose effects we are still seeing today. This is a time of extreme caution. The only way to avoid these calamities is to follow dharma and take refuge in God. 1. Give up meat, alcohol, and adultery and adopt a vegetarian lifestyle. 2. Perform tri-sandhya (three times a day - morning, noon, and sunset) 3. Continuously chant the name 'Madhav'. 4. Read the Shrimad Bhagavata Mahapuran daily. By following dharma and adopting these means, we will get protection from the coming dangers and remain in God's refuge. The incarnation of Lord Kalki has already occurred, and this is the time when we should adopt the path of dharma and devotion to secure our lives.

In some cases its about diplomacy. In Slovakia they build a dam system that was suppose to work with ones in Hungary. Since they dont build it they are in a pinch. Other they let it go and severely flood the Hungary part of Danube or hold it to its capacity and flood their area and parts of Austria and even Czechia.

[@teq_nix]

it's not that simple. The last flood of this kind in Poland was in 1997, but then it flooded the big city of Wrocław. Since then, a lot of fortifications have been made and now Wrocław is rather safe, but it flooded smaller towns. Retention reservoirs were also made there, but it was considered that too many of them cause drought, which since 1997 has been much more frequent than floods. Sometimes you have to choose the lesser evil.
