Add-in the facts that they’ve torn down scores of dams for fresh water, and bypassed the Central Valley farmers, letting the water drain into the ocean.

All is spiritual. The United States is under judgement and that's just a fact. If there is any doubt, reading the Bible will remove that doubt if a person is 'open' to the Lord's words.

This scripture deals with just one aspect: NIV-Leviticus 18:28
'And if you defile the land, it will vomit you out as it vomited out the nations that were before you.'

I think it's fair to say, America has been almost completely defiled and all the natural disasters we are witnessing is the consequence.

“Rivers all over the world are running really low,” especially the Tigress and Euphrates Rivers in Iraq, as well as significant bodies of water in countries like Italy, Romania, France and China...”

That sure is long way east of North America.

Old news. We’ve had enough rain in the last couple weeks to fill them back up.

It’s called “weather”.

Besides the traditional cyclical disasters, which natural disasters are you referring to?

Hydrologic studies have concluded that the low water level in the Colorado River is due almost entirely to massive drawdowns for irrigation. Same for the rivers feeding the shrinking Great Salt Lake.. Some modest elevation of water loss through evaporation into drier than normal skies which by itself would be no problem.

No doubt partly true. Water from Navajo Dam in New Mexico provides irrigation for crops on Navajo land south of the San Juan river near Farmington. Another recently announced project will take water from the same reservoir south through the New Mexico portion of the reservation to Gallup, New Mexico. This is because the tribe claims senior water rights to the river. Additional irrigation occurs along the Colorado river in the Grand Junction area and eastward. Finally, reservoirs on the west side of the continental divide provide water for the Denver metro area on the east side.

Regarding droughts, they are thought to have caused the abandonment of inhabitants of Chaco Canyon, NM with geological documentation of a fifty year drought that began around 1130 AD.

It’s true the western states are pretty dry right now. But things can swing back the other way pretty quick.

Three la niña episodes in rapid succession lead to prolonged dry spell in the air over North America. Torrential rains with flooding elsewhere. Weather is what weather does.

Yep, and it drives me crazy when someone in the climate alarmist camp spins around in circles fretting about how the temperature is x degrees “above average.” That’s how averages work…sometimes it’s above average and sometimes below. “Average” isn’t a data point, it’s just a mathematical construct.

Or the illegal cartel grow operations. Draining ponds and drawing down streams. Not to mention environmental damage and human trafficking in those operations. 10 to 15000 plants suck up a lot of water.

They need a bogyman, a scheme to scare all those drooling in cups. Salem witches, Galileo Galilei etc. It’s brilliant really since the weather/climate is everywhere, and the globalist who concocted this sham will use it to control everything we do as they steal our money.

Maybe that will compensate for the rise in the oceans. /s

We had a similar drought in about the 1300’s. The indians abandoned the cliff dwellings in NM. They say they don’t know why they were abandoned, but that was about the time of the Little Ice Age (which Mikey Mann erased with his fake Hockey Stick graph). Real climate change.

We’ve had all those disasters going back hundreds or thousands of years. Get a grip.

Any abnormal (which is most of the time) weather will fuel the climate crisis.. it’s the gift that keeps on giving.
