Severe flooding has devastated #Texas. @jmarlon.bsky.social (@yaleclimatecomm.bsky.social) says flash flooding isn’t new, but has increased due to #GlobalWarming. She urges citizens and leaders alike to take climate change and fossil fuel dependency seriously.

Last year, billion-dollar disasters occurred every 1 to 2 weeks on average. But Trump axed FEMA’s most effective climate resilience program, BRIC, gutting funding for flood protections, wildfire retrofits, storm-resilient power lines, and infrastructure. This is reckless. grist.org/politics/fem...
FEMA moves to end one of its biggest disaster adaptation programs
In an internal FEMA memorandum obtained by Grist, the Trump administration announced it plans to dismantle the Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities program.
