The Governor of Louisiana declared a state of emergency on April 18 based on the continuous, rapid erosion of the state's coastline. The Louisiana coast is the eye of a perfect storm for land loss caused by multiple factors, including climate change.
Losing Ground
Louisiana Governor John Bel Edwards declared a state of emergency on April 18 based on the continuous, rapid erosion of the state’s coastline. The goal of the declaration is to hasten the federal permitting process in order to get coastal restoration projects started and bring nationwide attention to the issue.
“Decades of saltwater intrusion, subsidence and rising sea levels have made the Louisiana coast the nation’s most rapidly deteriorating shoreline,” WWNO’s Travis Lux told the NPR Newscast unit. “It loses the equivalent of one football field of land every hour.”
The sky is falling!
The sky is falling!
So you don't think this is happening? What do you base your calm approach on?
No, I'm pretty sure he is saying the coastline ground is falling.The sky is falling!
No, I'm pretty sure he is saying the coastline ground is falling.The sky is falling!
Ah, the cause evades your thought processes. OK.No, I'm pretty sure he is saying the coastline ground is falling.The sky is falling!
That's fairly synonymous with erosion, no? Metinks it may be.

No, earlier governors of LA asked for deeper and straighter access to the Gulf and got it. That is eroding the coast faster than natural erosion ever could. They also engineered a below sea level largest city in the state. These Guys always double down on dumb.There is no such thing as climate change that's any different from the changing climate over the millenia. This is coastal erosion no different from any other natural coastal erosion.
Erosion? Because of rising water? Could it be because of climate change? I think we can believe Gov Edwards, not you, Marion Muddled.Ah, the cause evades your thought processes. OK.No, I'm pretty sure he is saying the coastline ground is falling.The sky is falling!
That's fairly synonymous with erosion, no? Metinks it may be.
So do tell, oh Fakey Jakey, what in no uncertain terms is the cause?

Sure thing, sluggo.Erosion? Because of rising water? Could it be because of climate change?Ah, the cause evades your thought processes. OK.No, I'm pretty sure he is saying the coastline ground is falling.

Could it be because of rising tides, moron?

Q. So how much must we lower CO2 to bring back the Louisiana coastline?
Why? It's your mixed up theory, not mine: you prove it.Sure thing, sluggo.Erosion? Because of rising water? Could it be because of climate change?Ah, the cause evades your thought processes. OK.
So do tell, oh Fakey Jakey, what in no uncertain terms is the cause?

Prove my theory wrong then, asshat.
