Never seen it before: the tide along the canals is rising more and
more, so much so that now I can not ride my bike on the road and must
look for alternative routes or simply turn back. Needless to say, the
salt water ruins your mechanical components and forces you to buy
another bike.
This happens just as the super storm hit NYC and they suffered
catastrophic damage. Maybe from a car is less noticeable or you assume
that is just rain water, but it ain't. This is the real thing, we are
sinking or the sea is rising, however you want to put it. I wished the
ocean rose in this calmed fashion so I can put in my kayak closer, but
the next storm may be the final proof of Climate Change.
Are we still looking for proof or just pretending it doesn't exist?

You don't seem to be rationalizing the cause and consequences of the
rising seas. Perhaps you live in a planet of your own and have no
concern whatsoever for humanity.
In my wisdom --Wisdom of the Jungle-- you practice PREVENTION and get
ready for the worst. If you must change the bike for the kayak so be
it, but you never go down without a fight.
Now read the link you provide:
"Rising seas, which are connected to global warming and climate
change, have been a growing topic in the City of Miami Beach. The
city’s new storm water plan includes $200 million of infrastructure
expenses designed to combat rising seas over the next 20 years."
***
Assuming that $150 million goes into the black hole of corruption not
much is left to fight rising seas. Democracy seems to mean "go with
the flow" around here.

One of the ironies of Climate Change is that it floods WholeFoods
first. They have installed solar panels and are very progressive about
the environment, and somehow people are kept from accessing the store

The similitude to the Titanic can not escape my imagination. They
thought it was unsinkable and then the iceberg struck... Actually the
iceberg never struck, it was that they were on the wrong course.
That's an important clarification.
It could be like a category 5 hurricane hitting an already flooded
area. I would be celebrating in Lincoln Road along with the upper
crust. I think the sinking of the Titanic was done in great style and
the relationship between the rich girl and the poor guy is just
romantic. They wouldn't have made a movie if such sinking ended as a
free-for-all and the rich escaped first. Did the rich escape first?
Anyway the captain of the boat went down with it.
Someone is always responsible for a sinking ship... But is someone
responsible for Climate Change or we just blame the crew and the
passengers?
Deep, deep question.

One possibility is to use an SUP instead of an SUV. That's also known
as a paddleboard and it can take you above and beyond what any SUV can
over flooded streets. If you can't stand up, don't worry. Kneeling
often does the job as well. You may even lie on it and swim if you
find it uncomfortable.
I find them the best invention since the kayak. Some may say they are
better, but that's only a matter of choice. I like them both. I don't
have an SUV but I got two SUPs.
The paddleboard may have being used by the primitive man and
ironically by the last man on Earth. Some find it nice as a vehicle
for meditation and relaxation. Perhaps better than yoga classes. Well,
you can do whatever you want on them.

far, his rear bumper went completely under and his underwater exhaust
was blowing bubbles, just so he could float his jet ski onto the
trailer rather than winch it up a few feet. I couldn't see his
underwater tag but assumed he wasn't local. Probably from the land of
lakes and fresh water. So I mentioned what salt water could do to his
new vehicle. He just shrugged and said he trades every year or two
anyway so, no problem.
I hope I never buy one of his trade ins.

The gadget that you must figure out because the manual is hard to

dolphins.

Someone is responsible for the sinking of this ship we call Earth. You
may blame one president or another, a king, a revolutionary man, or
all of them. I think Al Gore would have helped change the course of
the planet, but now we are headed for the iceberg. Bush chose the
collision course, and Obama just keeps the course.

The trick is to get off your ass and do something. Buddha showed the

That's the terminology used by those in the field. Don't worry about
it.

They are more. They are a flow of energy and the complement of
opposite, such as working out and then resting.
That's why my wisdom is so complete: ride a bike then lie in the
hammock. I haven't done kayaking in a while but that's active seating
as well.

Shit happens is as accurate as the laws of karma. Things just happen
without a particular reason.
The opposite would be CAUSE & EFFECT. Climate Change has a cause and
that's our stupid policies. We are a ship on automatic pilot.
