Two water worlds: What Venice can teach Charleston about tourism and climate adaptation Venice and Charleston have much in common. Both are surrounded by water. Both are low-lying and experience regular flooding. Both rely on a tourist economy.

A story I just did about two of my favorite cities. Both terminally threatened by #oceanrise

Trump has a hissy fit over COP30 He didn't want to go to it anyway because it's about climate change.

Donald Trump is the single greatest danger to the Earth because of his fetish for fossil fuels. He thinks climate change is a hoax.

Field Guide: Combahee River A new Charleston exhibition showcases a different kind of outdoors hero

A nice review of the "Picturing Freedom" exhibit, which focuses on the environmental angle, something most people have missed.

Rainfall and flash flooding continue to impact downtown Charleston A second day of sustained rainfall is keeping parts of the peninsula underwater on Aug. 23. Much of the city is under a flash flood warning.

Charleston my Charleston. What will become of you? And now they want to go ahead with the sea wall around the city. At $1.2 billion, it is an underestimate, and by the time it is built, it will be too late.

Facing tempests and rising waters, can SC's historical marine artifacts survive a warmer world? South Carolina's coast is sinking, putting historical sites in Charleston and across the Palmetto State squarely in the cross-hairs of climate change.

How clueless we are... It's time to pull back. Now!

I just did a photo flight over #Vancouver, looking at coastal issues for the new book with @papadakisbooks
I was particularly interested in the new terminal for shipping #TarSands oil out to west coast refineries.

NASA Analysis Shows Unexpected Amount of Sea Level Rise in 2024 A NASA analysis shows global sea level rose faster than expected in 2024.

Just when we need to listen to the #scientists to try to #ameliorate the coming crisis, we turn to the #ideologues who tell us what we want to hear.
Humans are so strange.

These major cities around the world are slowly sinking into the ocean These massive cities are sinking into the ocean as climate change fuels rising sea levels all around the world.

“If the sea levels were to rise as much as #NASA estimates, parts of or all of these massive cities could sink into the ocean.”
