THREAD: The effects of climate change are already manifesting themselves around us. From record-breaking fire seasons to drought and sea-level rise, California is witnessing a preview of things to come if we don’t act now to fight global warming. It’s #TimeToWakeUp.
Climate change is already threatening our coastal cities. San Francisco’s historic waterfront is being threatened and the seawall is in need of upgrading to handle stronger storms. This is what we can expect as temperatures continue to rise.pic.twitter.com/D7bPByBPug
Antarctica holds 90 percent of the world’s ice, and the rate of ice melting and calving increased six-fold from 1994 to 2012. A six-time increase in ten years. If the West Antarctic ice sheet collapses it will eventually raise sea levels worldwide by 10 feet.pic.twitter.com/EEelKMBJIU
During the recent California drought, many areas, including the Central Valley which produces the majority of the nation’s fruits and vegetables, had to depend on groundwater pumping that will not always be available and will take longer to replenish due to global warming.pic.twitter.com/pk98xegROa
We have to come to terms with the new reality of severe wildfire seasons. The recent Camp Fire, which is the largest fire California has ever had burned down an astonishing 15,000 homes.pic.twitter.com/cf6fxIFd0c
It’s not all bad news, California has mandated that 50 percent of its electricity must be from renewable sources by 2030, and we’re actually ahead of schedule and on track to reach that deadline by 2020. More must be done, but that’s certainly a move in the right direction.pic.twitter.com/CrvTHTsc0k
Your fires were caused by bad forest management and law suits to stop maintain the forests. Read the reports Senator. More lies.
Incorrect.
The only practical first step to tackling climate change is promoting personal responsibility for our actions on a daily basis! Large scale band aids will only drag us further towards tyranny
You know very well the #earthquakes, #volcanic activity and other events in #Nature are going to increase in frequency and intensity. Stop Lying that mankind is to blame. You know what we are experiencing and will continue to witness is directly related to the Core.pic.twitter.com/e6BkdE1Io4
@SenFeinstein we absolutely must address climate change. Can we also address why there was not ONE fire truck in Malibu Park the am of 11/9?
We would all like answers here in Malibu. LA & Ventura Counties knew the fire was headed for Malibu the night before. Why no response?
