More likely, I think rich people are buying up floodplain property because it's becoming cheaper and because they'll be able to force a government bailout when their shit gets flooded. The people actually doing the living in the floodplains will be renters, who, well, for lack of better term, don't matter as much.
So: Externalize financial losses onto the state/taxpayer (x) Externalize social losses onto the poors (x) Turn a tidy profit with genius level real estate investing (x)

Also, damn, Cali runs off 52GW (EDIT: Woops, I misread the units.) KiloMegaWatts? I've built bigger factories in Factorio! And DSP!

DeLorean liked his cocaine, at least thats what the gov said. Thick lines that blast one off.
-------------------- “I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”

I remember being happy that he beat all the drug charges, because the government entrapped him and because he was a key figure in the development of the greatest all-time muscle car, the GTO.

When animals start going extinct, mother nature will sue the industries responsible, law enforcement will put a boot in their asses, and everyone's standard of living will go down.

Yep, any day now there will be extinct animals. You watch.

No, we need to focus on the most susceptible animals so we can catch the bastards immediately.

Let's focus on Staghorn Coral (Acropora cervicornis).
The staghorn coral is found in the fore reef and back reef habitats off the coast of the United States down to Central America and the northernmost parts of South America. This branchy, stony coral is responsible for much of the reefs in the shallow waters along the Bahamas, the Florida Keys, and the Caribbean Islands.
Staghorn corals face the same threats synonymous with many of the world’s corals. Bad water quality, diseases resulting from pollutants and land runoff, and overfishing which has unbalanced their ecosystem by reducing natural predators and prey, and allowing more seaweed and algae to overwhelm them.
In addition, the casual burning of fossil fuels has resulted in the ocean absorbing more CO2 from the atmosphere, which has led to increased water temperature and acidity. Increased temperature and water acidity bleach corals and inhibit them from depositing calcium carbonate that forms their exoskeletons which we know as reefs.
Fossil fuels are the culprit, fossil fuels have to go.
How should we limit fossil fuels?

I know the answer to this one!
Use charcoal instead of propane for the grill!

Let's add ethanol to gas to make automobiles wear out faster and make new automobiles unaffordable.

"Brick toaster" aims to cut global CO2 output by 15% in 15 years. Seriously.
Quote:
At the heart of it, this ain't rocket surgery; converting electricity into heat is something that happens at 100% efficiency every time you turn on your toaster or hairdryer, says O'Donnell. Rondo uses a simple toaster-style system to heat up "blast stoves," similar to the ones the steel industry already uses for cyclical heat storage. These stoves are full of plain ol' bricks, made out of plain ol' clay, sometimes with a bit of sand in there, but certainly nothing special in terms of materials. Nothing toxic, nothing that decays over time. These bricks will still be storing heat just as well in 40 or 50 years' time, when chemical batteries have gone through several generations of complex recycling

I’m no rocket surgeon but isn’t turning electricity to heat an absurdly inefficient process?
