    I just realized Texas will probably see some of the most extreme cases of destructive weather than any other state due to global warming, yet they are arguably the biggest climate change deniers on the planet

        Getting weird down here. Simply doesn’t rain in the summer. Never saw water levels so low, and I’m outside a lot, pay attention to the local environment. There were places my kayak couldn’t go.

        And the Mississippi River, she’s a-goin’ dry 🎵

        That was considered unthinkable in '81, Biblical end kinda shit. (Country Boy Can Survive - HW Jr.). 40-years later and we were a week or three out from a fucking disaster because the Mississippi watershed couldn’t push the salt water back into the Gulf.

        Imagine if we dry out like that and then a hurricane hits. Noachian Flood.
