President Obama on Friday demanded new strategies to boost the nations resilience to powerful storms, drought, heat waves and other dangerous weather linked to climate change.
Obama issued a wide-ranging executive order designed to support climate resilient infrastructure investment in states and communities.
It also calls on federal agencies to change their policies and rules to make the Nation's watersheds, natural resources, and ecosystems, and the communities and economies that depend on them, more resilient in the face of a changing climate.
The executive order, echoing Obamas second-term climate agenda released in June, recognizes that climate change is inevitable even as the U.S. takes steps to lower greenhouse gas emissions.
It sets up a new "interagency Council on Climate Preparedness and Resilience," and, to inform federal efforts, a "State, Local, and Tribal Leaders Task Force on Climate Preparedness and Resilience."
The task force of state and local officials will provide ideas for "removing barriers to resilient investments, modernizing Federal grant and loan programs to better support local efforts, and developing the information and tools they need to prepare," the White House said.

“New calculations applied to a U.S. Senate report reveal the Environmental Protection Agency's plan to combat global warming through regulation of greenhouse gases would theoretically take over $700 trillion, seven times the world's gross production, to drop the earth's temperature only 1 degree Celsius.”

More wasted money. Another branch of the federal government just released news that this years Atlantic Hurricane season has been the weakest in 45 years.
Global Warming on Free Republic
State Storm Exchanges will handle all climate related matters from this day on.
“Obama on Friday DEMANDED...” Sounds like a dictator to me.
[. . . modernizing Federal grant and loan programs to better support local efforts. . .]
Like all the federal dollars that went to ACORN from the “Stimulus.” I’m no lawyer but I think the legal turn for this is “criminal fraud.”
“this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal”-

In the latest assessment report from the IPCC, they admitted that there is no scientific evidence to support the contention that global warming causes extreme weather events.
Why is our oh-so-stupid president pretending that there is?
Wait, I think I just answered by own question. It’s because he is so stupid.
>>Climate fueled storms? Are there any other kind?
Is this story a joke? Is Obama really this disconnected from reality that he’d create a name like that?
He’s beginning to make George III looks positively sane.
To #3> King O’Canute already commanded the oceans to lower themselves.How’d that work for him?]
Now he is commanding the winds to stop, the rain to land where he orders it, and ice to grow to Ice Age levels.
Delusional is not even close to describing this lunatic’s mind. Perhaps we need to create a new word in English to describe Obama’s megalomania. ‘Supermegalomia’ perhaps?
TO #26: Re Obama’s Executive Order, I WONDER IF HE READ THE THING BEFORE HE SIGNED IT.
NOT A CHANCE IN HELL!
I understand that Saul Alinsky had to draw pictures about his book/theories so that Obama could understand marxism.
[PS: I met Alinsky and my notes said that he was “SLEAZY”. Guess that’s why Obama liked him. Two red peas in a pod.
23. Engage Water Resources Research Institutes at land grant colleges and Tribal colleges in applied climate change adaptation research and capacity building through annual climate change grant awards.
24. Increase graduate level fellowships in water management and climate change.
The big one is the power grab by the EPA: 11. Continue development of tools and approaches that build capacity for water-related institutions to conduct vulnerability assessments and implement appropriate responses.
I am beginning to think that our President has more in common with George III than a desire to rule us against our will.
