I feel Climate change will be devastating over the next 5 years. Not for the nation as a whole, but for individual regions like Puerto Rico, Yemen, Syria, Houston, California, etc. Everything we have seen the last few years of massive storms, fires, droughts, will be seen again and again.

In many cases, folks do not differentiate the storm itself from the damages it causes. This is especially true with hurricanes. After the Federal Gov't decided to underwrite flood insurance, in places where private insurers would not, we saw exponential development along the southern coastlines. The exact same storms, 20-30-40-50 years later now do many times more damage.

We also must discuss human stupidity which escalates horrific damages. Firstly, after Katrina we learned that NoLa was sinking 3-4 times faster than previously thought. Conclusion: Rebuild the houses. Second, CA has passed extensive environmental laws that heavily restrict such vital fire-preventing measures as logging, removal of dead trees, and clearing of dry underbrush. Results: Rampant fires like the one that decimated Paradise.

Blame it on the new age religion of "Climate Change."

Personally I do believe the climate is changing. The earth is changing. We will see more earthquakes, volcanoes, and related disasters. The earth and its climate is the Lord's.
