Two major organizations that represent local authorities across the U.S. have voiced their support for a bipartisan bill that would open the door to federal aid for extreme heat.
Let’s declare summer a federal disaster. But sure, it’s primarily Arizona and Nevada. Two states that shouldn’t exist and already receive more than their fair share of federal aid. Why not add a few more bucks who cares?
While this is a pretty callous take, I do think it that a mass relocation effort from desert cities primarily reliant on the rerouting of rivers that are beginning to shrink due to climate change (i.e. Colorado River) needs to start being considered. What are they going to do once their water source is completely gone?
I think we are on the cusp of some seriously epic population migrations. It’s going to be ugly,the other is going to be in serious danger. Hopefully I’ve checked out before it happens, because I’m pretty much completely lacking in survival skills.
A vast majority of Nevada (80%) isn’t even owned by the state of Nevada but rather the federal gov’t, so of course a majority of their funds also aren’t state-generated.
