Ironically, according to climate scientists, climate change was supposed to cause so many more hurricanes.
The narrative will shift to "fewer hurricanes, but bigger ones when they happen" soon.
Ten days before Hurricane Harvey descended upon Texas on Friday, wreaking havoc and causing widespread flooding, President Donald Trump signed an executive order revoking a set of regulations that would have made federally funded infrastructure less vulnerable to flooding.
Because, as well all know, everything was completely dismantled over those ten days, or could have been built in the same timeframe.
Stop building your shit in floodplains, and your shit won't flood.
i think you missed this part
And in the coming days, Congress will be called upon to send billions of federal dollars to help with the state's recovery and rebuilding efforts.
But because of Trump's rollback of President Barack Obama's Federal Flood Risk Management Standard, experts across the political spectrum say much of the federal money sent to Texas is likely to be wasted on construction that will insufficiently protect against the next storm.
We all know that those money will never reach the victoms that really need them.
