These idiots get paid thousands and thousands for this BS
A post I used recently on another water level rising thread:
I just recently had cause to interact with a civil engineer who works out of the Portland Oregon area. I later looked at his website. His company’s work is based on predicted ocean level rises that will affect coastline activity. They go around various coastal sections and advise landowners what corrections to make to compensate for future damage.
He makes a very good living. Climate change is big business, this is just one small example.
Their work is based on one “scientific survey” that predicts the Oregon coast will rise 6” over the next 13 years. This is wildly hypothetical and flies in the face of other predictions that show millimeters rise per year, if any.
But this engineer and his cohorts latch onto this, and convince coastal owners to prepare for doomsday. And they pay big bucks for this “service”.
