Climate change will/has lead/led to increased storm and drought frequency and duration. We reap what we sow people, and its frustrating to hear these warnings be ignored.
Why is it that we trust nuclear scientists or oil engineers explicitly and without question, but we call bull#### on foresters, climatologists, hydrologists etc. when they warn us about this stuff? They are all just as educated..., trained and knowledgeable in their fields but nobody listens because its inconvenient.
Also, the only time the environmental scientists get called out is when something goes wrong, not when a disaster or the like is averted or prevented. But everyone gets dick-hard over quick-and-dirty profit margins that hurt us in the long run.
Maybe a cost-benefit analysis of the revenue and fruits of oilfield development should be pitted against the cost of rebuilding Calgary.
