“Norfolk is at risk over the next few decades if we don’t do something to slow down sea level rise,” Navy Secretary Ray Mabus told a gathering in Washington, D.C., on Monday.

Naval Station Norfolk, the largest naval complex in the world, is located in southeastern Virginia.

“All our bases are in some way or other at risk,” Mabus said. …

Then jump in it, Mr. Secretary.

Hmmm, ever consider moving to higher ground?

I’m willing to charge only a measly 1 million dollars to perform a study to prove this will solve the problem for them.

Build a desalination plant on the waterfront and pipe the water inland. That should take care of the rising sea water.

He must be ghey.

Why not just boil the excess water and the steam will rise?

[hinckley buzzard]

This is profound, probably willful ignorance. It is well understood that the land in the Norfolk area is sinking.

Shouldn’t be a problem for the ships.....

[Nifster]

What an idiot

[dsrtsage]

One more navy boat and the entire Chesapeake Bay may capsize

[Williams]

Nonsense and there is not a damn thing we could do about real sea level rise on a global scale.

[FlingWingFlyer]

It sounds like Ray Ray’s elevator doesn’t go all the way up.

We are from a proud military family......since the Revolutionary War, The Civil War, WW2, Korean, and during peace time. I am reluctant about sending my boys to war at this time. Makes me sick.

[Always A Marine]

These climate change fraudsters never say exactly what must be done to prevent these calamities, just that we should surrender our freedom and money and trust them to save us. And that we must be quick about it (lest we figure out the scam).

[Billthedrill]

Drill a hole in the bottom of the ocean and drain it a little. Why do I always have to be the smart guy who thinks of these things?

[scooby321]

Al Gore said Florida is under water thought I saw him there last week

[databoss]
