re: #253 Eclectic Cyborg

And if you’re in the greater NOLA area in Louisiana, you’re facing a crisis situation where the entire potable water supply is threatened because the water flow on the Mississippi River (your source for fresh water) is so low due to drought conditions upstream, that salt water infiltration is close to the intakes for the city’s water supply.

If salt water gets into the water intakes, it means the city loses its water - and everyone living there would need bottled water or tanked in water.

The ACE is trying to build underwater dikes to keep salt water from going upstream.

You’ve got entire ecosystems and communities upended because climate change is causing more extreme weather - more droughts and more extreme droughts, along with more extreme wetness and rainfall events.
