They are orders of magniude difference in speed. The "combined problem" of delta subsidence AND OH MY GOT GW SEA RISE is the most distorting thing since CNN ran a story with the headline "global warming sea rise will be just like the tsunami" which killed 300,000 people.

Clicking on the link, 6 paragagraphs down, they say it will be 30 feet, "like the tsunami", but over 300 years.

So learn 2 hyperbole like your power broker masters. You only think I disbelieve. Because you don't think.

Mali struggles to keep its generators running. This is a corruption and dictator problem.

I've long said the biggest problem for humanity is death, as it has been since we've been humans, and the biggest problem with death is dictatorship and corruption slowing progress.

Putting it in terms of gw because that's the current concern in the west, puts the cart before the horse for major problems of humanity by several orders of magnitude.

Gotta tie it into global warming somehow.

This particular issue has nothing to do with it, and is at a faster rate. River deltas meander back and forth (like rivers themselves). As such, they are constantly depositing fresh silt, back and forth, back and forth.

Build a city, put in levees to guide the river, and this process stops. The weight of the city and the silt it is built on slowly squeeses out water, squeezes it down. New Orleans is 6 feet below sea level, as we found out 20 years ago.

The process is slow, allowing easy building of sea walls, but much faster than sea rise.

This is a cross between a helicopter and a Cessna

Yes. The spirit of the 5th amendment is that no one should be compelled to aid in their own prosecution.

A long time ago, people realized progress depended on energy. If you have enough energy, you can do almost anything.

Best to get to it. If it needs to be "clean", so be it, but conservation AKA Spartan lives, is of very limited conceptual value.

Get to it making more.

In some states, they might be protected for off the job political opinions and activity. But this was on the job, speaking as Google workers agains their employer.

It's the difference between "I don't think company X should do this." And "I work for company X and don't think they should do this." You can't speak on behalf of the company outside the official mouthpiece, as you don't own it.

Cherry picking endpoints. Palestinians have been bullied around the mideast for a lot longer than that, mostly by not-Jews.

Their plan was to get the useful idiots to cow down Israel. This "opposed to Israel's actions, not their Jewishness" was integrated into the plan. Of course, that's for the West. Everywhere else it's classic antisemitism.
