As the Great Salt Lake Dries Up, Utah Faces 'An Environmental Nuclear Bomb'
SALT LAKE CITY — If the Great Salt Lake, which has already shrunk by two-thirds, continues to dry up, here’s what’s in store: The lake’s flies and brine shrimp would die off — scientists warn it could start as soon as this summer — threatening the 10 million migratory birds that stop at the lake...
Eeek I hate saying this but we miss a opportunity to turn this around 20 years ago every man for their selves nowUtah catching hell too!

Al Gore tried to tell em'!Eeek I hate saying this but we miss a opportunity to turn this around 20 years ago every man for their selves now
I am a hard-core Democrat and I laughed at him in the 90s when he was speaking about this but come to find out he was 100% correct. We should have listened to that man.
Man, it was all funny until I saw An Inconvenient Truth. I was convinced after that. Dude laid it out in a way that was truly undeniable. I don't understand any attempts to discredit the data.
I would have kept that to myself
No I was super young at the time and didn’t know any better
Climate scientist were telling us in the 90s before gore
What does this even mean? Where you goin hide from climate?Eeek I hate saying this but we miss a opportunity to turn this around 20 years ago every man for their selves now
True but Al Gore had the bull horn
Industries pay lobbyists handsomely to discredit the data.
Aight cool. I was fortunate that I was sent to a science magnet for middle and high-school. Engineering programs etc.etc. "Gifted" and highly liberal programs for most of my formative years.
Al gore was the first and last president I voted for
The rich believe they will inherit the world.
Have you seen what the stock market has done in the last 20yrs, and that's what really matters, right? I have no idea how much wealth has been raked in by all the corps polluting the environment, but it had to be worth it or they wouldn't have done it. "Markets are never wrong, ..."Eeek I hate saying this but we miss a opportunity to turn this around 20 years ago every man for their selves now
Really,the 1970's but you had some scientists that said it would be an ice age. Those same scientists that would change their mind in the 80's... It's crazy,how 50 years later we still got people believing global warming doesn't exist.
When I was growing up in Cleveland it would snow a lot in the winter but now we may get two weeks of snow total for the season. People acting like the weather we're having is normal.
im sorry but i heard bits and pieces i was focus on those big tidies lol
Yup South Florida this is your future

I remember when Covid shut the world down and the environment began to heal itself. Humans on borrowed time.
Oh I remember that and you are correct
Yeah, in grade school in the 1980s they had us thinking the world would be over by now. We got the weekly reader and that shit was doom and gloom. People think this environment concern is new, but it isn't.
And it still snows a lot. Look at the annual snowfall for our city. Shit, some of the weakest years on record were a long time ago. Doesn't mean the climate isn't fucked up, but Cleveland still is Cleveland.
If we are truthful, it can be argued as soon as humans progressed to farming the planet was doomed.
Not only that, but animals started to take their corners back!
The same way the oil company tried to discredit the scientist that tried to tell people about leaded gas, they're doing it again with climate change! Sure you can make the argument that the climate always changes, but the drastic changes that have been made due from the '80s til now versus the 40s-80s are undeniable.
My theory is if you live in a place that doesn't get a lot of snow in the winter you're FCUKED!
Midwest we (Michigan to be exact) got the Great Lakes, fresh water, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana and Ohio will tap that to keep those levels at bay. Minnesota is full of fresh water lakes. These costal states will get swallowed up by their salt water oceans.

Humans are cancerous to earth.
Just like how our bodies react with a fever whenever there is an infection, the earth is doing the same thing.
Eventually, humans will destroy the very thing that was meant to protect us. And we deserve every bit of these comeuppances.
All the pollution and overcrowding of major cities. Waste on the ground and poison in the air.
Yes, there will be a huge migration to middle America soon enough. East Coast cities are super fucked. It’s already showing clear as day.
my last 30 yrs gonna be the best .....
I am old enough to remember the big debate over recycling. It wasn't necessary, it was a waste of time. The minute politicians found out a buck was to be made, EVERY house and office now has some form of recycling in it. And what do these garbage companies do? Shuffle it around from state to state, country to country and then out in the middle of the ocean on garbage island.
I keep saying the early seasons (and a few in the later seasons) were glimpses into our future:

I think the overcrowded argument isn’t only lazy, it was debunked. This planet can house infinite amount of species, it’s just that it isn’t financially profitable.Humans are cancerous to earth.

The middle of the country is done. It’s a desert.

Speaking of farming, the world is running out of soil. If you know anything about soil, its important for a number of things other than just growing our food..

Old school farming isn't the issue. Its the industrial revolution that is killing the planet.
Yup
