What a wonderful idea. Do I mail you a check or does it come out of my taxes automatically?
Is the idea here that the sewage would be so gross that the oceans would hold back?
Can someone please tell me if there is actual proof that sea waters are rising? I believe nothing that comes out of the mouths of the left. A look at Hoover Dam and Lake Mead says otherwise.
I don’t understand the omnipresent cognitive dissonance of the left. I’m sure many of these scientists who fearmonger with assertions that global warming will kill us all, also believe there is an overpopulation problem. Why try to stop your Problem A when it is the solution to your Problem B?
Of course, both anthropogenic gw and the so-called population bomb are specious, but you would think they would at least connect the dots and be consistent in their own made up world.
A local sanitation department for the Hampton Roads region wants to start injecting the water deep underground instead of dumping it in rivers that flow into the Chesapeake Bay.
I would suspect that the water treatment facilities is unable to meet the state or federal standards for clean water and want to hide their dirty water deep underground. If they were allowed to do this, I further suspect in a few years down the road the down side of doing this will come back and bite them in the butt (by that time however, the management would have collected their bonuses and moved on).
One of the N reasons that journalists fail second grade science (where N is a very large number) is this article.
Sea rise?
OK, where?
Oh, forgot, it’s coming.
Just like the “no snow, ever” prediction that was slated for a couple of years ago.
Remember, when math and physics are beyond your ken, you’ve always got journalism, English, “studies” or other crappola.
what could possibly go wrong?

If it ain’t broke why fix it. Fake news and phony science doesn’t need action.
No, treated sewage is not a “tool” against sea level rise. If you’ve got enough, it might be a “tool” against subsidence created by groundwater depletion, but it won’t have the least bit of an effect on the sea level.
These people can’t really be scientists. They’re just too ignorant. Please tell me that science in the United States has not been reduced to this.
More than so-called ‘man-made global warming’ what folks should really be concerned about are the hair-brained schemes some in the political and science communities are hatching to deal with it. Law of unintended consequences anyone?
So they are planning on fracking.
The oceans have been rising for the past 15,000 years. I don’t think it’s going to help.
Pile the sewage on all the beaches before the sea levels rise too high.
Environmentalists in favor of contamination of the sandy aquifer?
Build a desalination facility. This way all the water that would flood virginia’s coast would be turned into fresh water and shipped inland. End of flooding....
/yes, this is ridiculous, but the rats have no come back for it.
Would that contaminate the ground water which wells draw from?
