clinate change meets military readiness....

what is especially ironic is that, while the Navy is well aware of the issues, the Virginia Senate consistently blocks any significant monies for either research or planning for sea-level change, nor any mention of climate change, global warming or other annoying buzzwords in public documents. I'd love to hear Woody or NS apply the logic around the use of the words Islamic Terrorism to this avoidance........

what an idiotic question to start my week. Not even worth answering if you can't comprehend the worth of a Navy.woodchip wrote:So we are going to fight isis at sea?

What a equally idiotic reply. What does rising sea levels have to do with with naval ships being able to function? Oh and clinate is really spelled "climate".

Re: clinate change meets military readiness....
try reading the article and get back to me. The naval info officer explains it for you. Of course, you'd rather demonstrate your lack of intellect and flaunt it. Let's just start with the part of the article(which you clearly didn't read) that points out that the Submarine Service facility is unable to operate several days a year at present due to high tides threatening electrical service equipment. How ready are we if when there is a crisis, we have to wait to service an active duty submarine because of water level at the service docks?

I'm glad to see you think our naval engineers can't fix the problem

Re: clinate change meets military readiness....
until they figure out how to make the land higher, there is just so much engineering one can do. Once again, Woody, you dance around the entire article and the facts laid out, and don't even address whether the GOP in VA demanding that we not even DISCUSS Climate Change is an even more aggregious avoidance of reality, with far less justification, than Obama not using Islamic before the word terrorism, nor Disney not putting alarming alligator warnings on their lagoons.

Re: clinate change meets military readiness....
I guess you forget how the Dutch handle land being lower than sea level. As to not discussing climate change, is that any worse than your side demanding criminal laws be established against climate change deniers? Out of curiosity, when is the last time we had a scientific symposium where scientist on both sides meet and discuss climate change?callmeslick wrote:until they figure out how to make the land higher, there is just so much engineering one can do.

Re: clinate change meets military readiness....
your willful ignorance is strong. Your mind, thus, is weak. For instance, had you read the article you would have noted that the Dutch are assisting the Navy in the effort to address the rising waters, on a long-term basis. But, you don't read what you deem(before reading) as 'rags', with ZERO to back up your assertion that those sources are unworthy.

Here, lets see how your knowledge base it:
So climate change is also causing land to sink? Did you even notice that little tid bit. Or did you just knee jerk and jump on climate change?A combination of sinking land and rising water there means that relative sea level may be up to 6 feet

Re: clinate change meets military readiness....
of course, I noticed it. Owning property down that way, I'm aware of the geography. It's the impact of the unplanned-for, or in the case of the right, the denied reality of climatic changes that ADDS TO THE PROBLEM. Can you grasp that? Or, is it just a wee bit too inconvenient for you to move your ideological blinders and try. I ask again, what is the justification for the VA GOP to reject merely STUDY of climate change, or even STUDY of how to possibly cope with it. Because, while the Navy is hard at work, the Obama admin not being comprised of flat-earth, science-skeptic clowns, the Commonwealth of VA is doing nothing and the whole area from Williamsburg to Virginia Beach is at risk. No one, myself included, is suggesting spending vast amounts trying to save Tangier or Watts Islands, and we're all grateful now that the decision was long made not to develop the barrier islands on the seaside, but why wouldn't you(were you truly representing the citizenry and their longterm interests)attempt to address potential dangers for around 3 million residents of the Western Shore?woodchip wrote:Here, lets see how your knowledge base it:
