Maybe "all these buildings" shouldn't have been built there in the first place.

Not everything, but it brings on the irrationality of of the PA amateur climatology club and lunatic thinking of Trumpites like you.

Are The Army Corps of Engineers along with the city of Miami also part of the "deep state"?

Do you know when the city of Miami was founded?
July 28, 1896.
Climate science was in it's infancy. And even now 100+ years later when authentic climatologists warn of rising seas, the PA amateur climatology club does not believe it. And would rather believe Tonm' idiotic three Bens.
Ben dryer
Ben wetter ans
Benadine dumber

just because Miami is sinking does not mean it is cause by climate disruption. you would think the climate geniuses would realize sand is a worthless dike.

And you know Miami is sinking rather than sea levels around it are rising.
How?
Since the fat ass moron moved to West Palm Beach?

Of course climate changes.
Duh.
The planet changes.
Always has, always will.
The continents are moving.
Shores have always been changing.
Libs just need a reason to whine and cry.
They need a cheery song to pick them up....
*sing*
Oh the weather outside is frightful
but yet it's so delightful.
It drives Harry crazy so,
let it snow, let it rain, let it go!
btw, I like the dancing apes.....reminds me how far I have come from the monkeys compared to some here.

Just because Miami is sinking doesn't mean it's a bad thing.
No offense to Louisianans, but was Katrina that bad because of GW or because they built the city underwater? (GAWD, hope POT still has ignore)
The first time I flew into Florida, I saw all those hotels lined up along the beach near Cape Canaveral - and seeing them in relations to the ocean I thought - you gotta be nuts to build like that! This was 1988.

You never deal with why climate changes
Your three Bens are clueless as to specifics, as are you.

Many of us on here truly believe humans will still be around in 12 years, oh pardon me, 11 years now. So who is thinking like a lunatic? Of course if your side is right, you won't be around to gloat about it.

New Orleans is over 300 years old. Surely when they started living and building there they were not doing it in a shallow lake. Yet today most of it is below sea level. What's up with that? Is the city sinking or the Mississippi rising?

I don't care why it changes.
It changes.
It always has.
I am not afraid of facing the challenges a changing climate presents to us. I have faith in humans to adapt. We always have in the past.
OR, we may not, and NEW version of us will come to be.
Who the Hell says WE are the end of human evolution?
Other than a bunch of neanderthals.
Besides, your stupid new green beans deal ideas will NEVER be adapted world-wide.
Not enough idiots our there.

Dozens of trucks have started dumping hundreds of thousands of tons of sand on Miami Beach as part of US government measures to protect Florida’s tourist destinations against the effects of climate change.
“We have erosion hotspots,” said Stephen Leatherman, an expert on beaches and the environment at Florida International University. They dredge the sand off the coast onto a barge, then pump it onto the beach.
“When the beach is critically narrow, there’s not enough room for recreation for all the people that come here, and more important, perhaps, all these buildings need to be protected,” he said Friday.
Leatherman — known locally as “Dr Beach” — said that rising sea levels, triggered by climate change, are causing the accelerated erosion of the famous beach, as well as coastal storms and in particular hurricanes.
The Army Corps of Engineers this month began the $16 million operation to dump 233,000 cubic meters (8.2 million cubic feet) of sand on eroded areas of Miami Beach by June, a project that was originally designed to address damage wrought by Hurricane Irma in 2017.
......“Some people say it’s like throwing millions of dollars out in the ocean every year and maybe they’re right, but we have to do it; we have to have the beach here,” said Leatherman.
“South Florida is considered ground zero for climate change,” he said. “I mean, not only do we have beach erosion, we got flooding going on during King tides, which happen all too often now, where some roads get flooded.”
.................................................. ...........
Hope the three Bens don't get their feet wet.
And the box stays lucid.

It's called beach re-nourishment. Normal erosion due to tides. They were doing it at Reddington Beach in 1992 on the Gulf Coast. Dredge sand off the coast onto a barge, then pump it onto the beach.

Hey Benadine, the direct correlation of the amount of CO2 in the climatehas been shown to be directly related to increases in global temperatures. In the past-many times, and now since the industrial revolution.
from NOAA....
Temperature Change and Carbon Dioxide Change
https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/global-war...erature-change
One of the most remarkable aspects of the paleoclimate record is the strong correspondence between temperature and the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere observed during the glacial cycles of the past several hundred thousand years. When the carbon dioxide concentration goes up, temperature goes up. When the carbon dioxide concentration goes down, temperature goes down. A small part of the correspondence is due to the relationship between temperature and the solubility of carbon dioxide in the surface ocean, but the majority of the correspondence is consistent with a feedback between carbon dioxide and climate. These changes are expected if Earth is in radiative balance, and they are consistent with the role of greenhouse gases in climate change. While it might seem simple to determine cause and effect between carbon dioxide and climate from which change occurs first, or from some other means, the determination of cause and effect remains exceedingly difficult. Furthermore, other changes are involved in the glacial climate, including altered vegetation, land surface characteristics, and ice sheet extent.
Too complicated? Here's a piture.
Temperature change (light blue) and carbon dioxide change (dark blue) measured from the EPICA Dome C ice core in Antarctica (Jouzel et al. 2007; Lüthi et al. 2008).
Scientists trying to determine how the Earth might change as temperatures rise often look back in time to a period around 3.6 million years ago called the middle Pliocene, when concentrations of carbon dioxide ranged from about 380 to 450 parts per million. (Currently Dec. 2019: 411.85 ppm
Dec. 2018: 409.23 ppm.)
