Tokyo's response to the changing climate

Just after 5 a.m. on August 30, water began flooding a vast underground chamber called the “cathedral” just north of Tokyo. The gushing water, captured by security cameras, was the rain that was drenching the capital region as Typhoon Shanshan lashed southwest Japan, 600 km (373 miles) away.

The cathedral and its vast network of tunnels did their job: they prevented a vulnerable river basin in the metropolis from flooding. But as global warming causes more severe weather, authorities are having to give the system a major upgrade.

This is fascinating. The level of engineering is impressive and and it is a good response to the changes.

There will be engineering projects galore as climate change rages on. Coastal cites throughout the US and around the world are preparing for the inevitable sea level rise. The Climate deniers who cry about spending a few dollars now to prevent climate change will see their descendants spending trillions to deal with climate change; but what do they care, they will be dead.

Mah "Climate Change".

Not sure if it's a hoax or a religion.

I'll just go with grift machine.

prevent climate change

Prevent natural earth evolution lolz.
Whats next? Volcanoes?
Fucking moon bats

Yeah, when it comes to climate science I can either listen to the scientists or some idiot with a John Wilkes Booth avatar. Tough choice there.

You listen to the scientists you WANT to hear from. You fool no one. Except maybe yourself.

They get paid to produce what the hoaxers want to hear.

There is no preventing it.

Even if humans were the cause, we as a group are not willing to make the lifestyle changes necessary to change anything

Thus it is time to stop fighting over the cause and work in things like this

Oh yeah..like NASA and the 97% of the scientists who agree on anthropogenic climate change.

You have it backward, you have been brainwashed by big oil and their multibillion dollar campaign to convince people like you that climate change is a hoax though internal e-mails have shown they always knew CO2 emissions would lead to higher global temperatures. Use your friggin brain.

Unveiling Big Oil's Campaign of Lies

An explosive hearing held by the U.S. Senate Committee on the Budget has unveiled more details of Big Oil’s campaign to block climate action.

How so?

Care to flesh that out a bit?

 

[TNHarley]

97% of the scientists who agree on anthropogenic climate change.

When you have to resort to this debunked bs, you know you are simply a bootlicker.

It just sucks that every single thread about things people are doing to combat climate change turn into mud fights over the cause when we are so far passed the cause being important.

Wrong, anthropogenic climate change is real; you have been brainwashed by big oil disinformation and now can’t see the truth. Too bad.

"climate change rains..."

Laughable.

No longer pushing "ocean rise" and "increasing canes" because THE DATA refutes both, now it is "climate change rains..."

There was never a flood before Algore....

Is it changing climate or weather?

I really doubt that no typhoon in history ever flooded Tokyo

you still have not figured out the difference between the two yet.

damn, that is pretty sad.

Read the article and educate yourself.

Or remain ignorant, your choice

Thats not a very good answer

I suspect that flooding Tokyo does not happen every year or every typhoon

So people like yourself who may be freaked out over the man-made climate change Doomsday hoax are easy prey for the hysteria mongers
