Fun fact: there isn’t any state that is safe from climate change disasters no matter what party is in power. Also, NC has a democratic governor and half of its House members are democrats.
Least affected states is/will be the Upper Midwest and even there, Republican politicians are making up for it by literally poisoning the drinking water.
Because they’re cartoon villains, except dumber than Elmer Fudd.
To be fair, it was one huge industrial area because of the great lakes ability to transport massive amounts of material. So it’s been poisoned land for like a hundred years now.
Not really, no. The Upper Midwest has poisoned lakes and also the best freshwater reservoirs in the country.
The GOP just choose to supply places like Flint from the poisoned ones because they’re corrupt and don’t give a shit about people who can’t afford to kick in at least $1000 in legal bribes every election season and more between elections.
The GOP has a supermajority in the NC House. NC has a democratic governor, who is term limited, and a right wing lt. governor. Plus the GOP state legislature went ham with gerrymandering and redistricting before this upcoming election. So the republican hold on the state might deepen.
Some nice points but also NC voted for Trump in the last two presidential elections - and this despite having been a swing state prior to that?
So yeah, not as deep a red state as they could be, but they were still fairly influential in e.g. dropping out of the Paris Climate Accord, not merely individually as a state but in causing the entire United States of America to do so.
The best time to have done something was yesterday - or in this case, 8 years ago.

Sometimes I wish I could just use a magic wand. I’m glad there’s safe water, and I’m horrified they make anyone use the unsafe stuff.
Hell yeah, wait, I mean no.
NOOOO
I hear cartoon burns nicely, and can be cut pretty nicely with a guillotine.

Though the second best time is now.
