You can't win against the Cally leftist RAT. Progressives - always going backwards.
LOL - and this commission’s alternative? Everyone, including their precious poor people, can just go without water?
Well then, build it on stilts.
5.56mm
No need to rush things!
Need to replace the staff.
Fine by me.
Then either 1) move it inland or 2) build a seawall around it. For crying out loud, what a red herring excuse.
And it is PURE BS that our "understanding" of climate change and sea level rise is any better than it was.
The same people who won't build any water infrastructure or desalination plants are importing millions of Mexicans every year. California has 40 million people. Where will they get the water for the next 10 million or 20 million?
No ya can’t. Once it occurred to me things would only get worse in CA I bailed out. I once had hope of the state turning around...But in the past 6 years or so, it became quite apparent that would likely never happen. It’s why they flooded the state with millions of illegals and foreign nationals of every description. That changed everything.
Their understanding is based on climate models that have never been right. Never mind the fact tide gauges show that the rate of sea level rise is not increasing. So this project is being cancelled based on crystal ball prognostications and lies.
The coastal commission is basically insane. They have mandated that the state prepare their infrastructure for a minimum 3.5 foot sea level rise in the next 30 years. The long-standing rate of sea level rise in average 2mm per year, with numerous sites where the sea level is in fact dropping. Maniacs stewing in their own ignorance, running the most populous state in the union. Ludicrous.
The Coastal Commission is 100% anti-development. No parks, no desalination, no power, no oil rigs and if they had their way, no people. CA needs at least a dozen desalination plants and several new reservoirs, but these idiots will fight every single one. For the price of CA’s stupid “train to nowhere” rail project, we could build 20 and a bunch of reservoirs.
840 miles of coastline parked next to the biggest ocean in the Milky Way - and RATS still can’t find water.
I HOPE THEY ALL THIRST TO DEATH. They deserve no less. “Sea level rise”, nonsense...
Well the obvious question is "How much has the sea level actually risen in that 25 years", and how does that match against the projection?
The fish, birds, low-income (minorities?). They forgot the women and children and the LGBTQrxyz fringe.
The communists depend on shortages of anything to use as a reason for constantly expanding their control of their serfs...
Naturally they will stop any process or plan that would result in eliminating a shortage of something as important as water...
We have a desalination plant here in Carlsbad, built and operated by the same company. It is located right on the coast at a site very similar to the one proposed for Huntington Beach. Reverse osmosis is not a dangerous process, so there is no appreciable risk to the public even if it should flood. Ignore the staff and build the plant. The term “exponentially” is a giveaway that the staff is comprised of a bunch of poorly educated lefty kids. Tell us, boys and girls, exactly what is that exponent and how was it derived?

Dihydrogen Monoxide
The Invisible Killer
Dihydrogen monoxide is colorless, odorless, tasteless, and kills uncounted thousands of people every year. Most of these deaths are caused by accidental inhalation of DHMO, but the dangers of dihydrogen monoxide do not end there. Prolonged exposure to its solid form causes severe tissue damage. Symptoms of DHMO ingestion can include excessive sweating and urination, and possibly a bloated feeling, nausea, vomiting and body electrolyte imbalance. For those who have become dependent, DHMO withdrawal means certain death.
Dihydrogen monoxide:
is also known as hydroxyl acid, and is the major component of acid rain
-contributes to the “greenhouse effect.”
-may cause severe burns.
-contributes to the erosion of our natural landscape.
-accelerates corrosion and rusting of many metals.
-may cause electrical failures and decreased effectiveness of automobile brakes.
-has been found in excised tumors of terminal cancer patients.
Contamination Is Reaching Epidemic Proportions.
Quantities of dihydrogen monoxide have been found in almost every stream, lake, and reservoir in America today. But the pollution is global, and the contaminant has even been found in Antarctic ice. DHMO has caused millions of dollars of property damage in the midwest, and recently California.
Despite the danger, dihydrogen monoxide is often used:
as an industrial solvent and coolant.
in nuclear power plants.
in the production of styrofoam.
as a fire retardant.
in many forms of cruel animal research.
in the distribution of pesticides. Even after washing, produce remains contaminated by this chemical.
as an additive in certain “junk-foods” and other food products.
Companies dump waste DHMO into
rivers and the ocean.
Phew! That was a close call! For a second there I thought that California was going to do something reasonable and rational. Nope! But don’t scare me like that again!
