      Jakarta is sinking faster than any other big city on the planet, faster even than climate change is causing the sea to risehttp://nyti.ms/2CTQ5UH

      It’s happening so surreally fast that rivers sometimes flow upstream, ordinary rains regularly swamp neighborhoods and buildings slowly disappear underground http://nyti.ms/2kyW4Yf pic.twitter.com/oAiAuL9OMM

      The main cause? Jakartans are digging illegal wells, drip by drip draining the underground aquifers on which the city rests — like deflating a giant cushion underneath it. http://nyti.ms/2p9oSeA pic.twitter.com/MoDXXq6BWz

          About 40 percent of Jakarta now lies below sea level, and hydrologists say the city has only a decade to halt its sinking http://nyti.ms/2kBUm8C pic.twitter.com/0LmtaiKT3N

          To keep Jakarta from ending up underwater, the city needs to stop digging wells and provide residents with reliable, clean water, and — at an untold cost of billions — retrofit the city with a sewer system http://nyti.ms/2kWHo4x pic.twitter.com/Q1k7E6RX8n

          This quote could be about #CorkerKickback and #CornynKickback. #GOP Congress undermining belief in our democratic institutions by promoting their self interest above country. #American exceptionalism was so we wouldn't have to feel defeated like the citizens of corrupt nations.
