Speaking of statistics, in Baltimore, the MSM and the City government are touting the drop in carjackings from last year to this. Funny (or not) thing is, this is due to the criminal gangs switching from carjacking to auto theft ( a separate, ignored, statistic) which has increased something like 5 fold. Why? because the gangs employ young teens to steal the cars. There is a catch and release policy in effect for juveniles in Baltimore. Get pinched for stealing a car? No problem, you are released on-site and are free to go steal another car.

So far as St Louis is concerned, I believe the place to avoid is East St Louis, across the river in Illinois, a classic rust belt town. I've seen videos of the hoods in Baltimore, including West Baltimore where violent crime is said to be limited to just a few blocks and usually related to gang rivalries.
The use of juveniles to steal cars used to be a feature of life in Sydney, and probably still is. Even nastier is the 'county lines' traffic in the United Kingdom, where juveniles are used to ferry small quantities of very hard drugs to users, again to avoid criminal charges.
I've seen a few videos taken by guys driving around the tougher areas of Baltimore: what seems unique to the place is the erection of new facades over the frontages of row houses to brighten the place up a bit.
I don't know what the solution to America's urban and rural decay might be, especially when it's got to the stage where houses are being left to collapse, or else burnt down, small businesses are abandoned as empty shells, minus the roofs and facades. Throwing money at the problem doesn't seem to work.
Is the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra a public good? Does it receive state or municipal funding? Should it?

I listened to his Dutchman on an operatic excerpts cd the other day and
he is magnificent.
However, I can't stand watching the video of his recording of the opera.

The world will have to start changing its vocabulary soon. Out with "once in a lifetime floods" and in with "this year's floods". Out with "extreme heatwave" and in with "average heat for this time of year".

People are still trying to clean the mud out of their houses and carry on living on the flood plane. They will either have to move elsewhere or raise their houses one floor. But since the roads, electricity and sewerage would be buggered anyway doesn't seem much point.

There are going to be unprecedented migrations - millions will simply have to move elsewhere.

And the phrase "the pace of change is glacial" now has new meaning considering how fast glaciers are melting.

Are we living in times where it's about the new normal?

Or the new abnormal?

We are living in the end of times you donkeys:

"We are “quite literally” in the “last chance saloon,” says Prince Charles. Humanity is “about 5-1 down at half-time,” says Boris Johnson. People will curse this generation of politicians worse than they did that which appeased Hitler, says Justin Welby, the Archbishop of Canterbury, because they are allowing “a genocide on an infinitely greater scale”."

Time to name and shame...... The nations that increased emissions most in 2022 Jan-May

India 7.5%
USA 5.7%

Group of 20 (G20) members are NOT on track to achieve either their original or new pledges to cut emissions by 2030. The G20 nations account for 80% of global carbon dioxide emissions and 70% of global plastic production

The study found that only ten G20 members – Argentina, China, European Union, India, Japan, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Turkey and the United Kingdom – are on track to achieve their previous Nationally Determined Contributions. In the case of India its NDC was deemed not challenging enough.

Thanks....

"Americans have sought to control nature with dams, sea walls, and an all-out federal campaign to suppress Western wildfires. Clearly, none of that is working any longer. Communities are starting to accept that the places they chose as home and the houses they’ve built are simply in the wrong place at the wrong time for a rapidly warming planet. If it’s not a fire on the horizon, it’s a flood. If not tomorrow, next month, or next year. Instead of waiting to become inadvertent climate migrants evacuating under duress, they are moving in what’s becoming known as a managed retreat."

Communities are starting to accept that the places they chose as home and the houses they’ve built are simply in the wrong place at the wrong time for a rapidly warming planet. If it’s not a fire on the horizon, it’s a flood. If not tomorrow, next month, or next year. Instead of waiting to become inadvertent climate migrants evacuating under duress, they are moving in what’s becoming known as a managed retreat."

Chatbot's BARD answer to the question: How did the wildfires in Canada get started?

The wildfires in Canada started for a variety of reasons, including:

Dry weather: The weather in Canada has been extremely dry in recent months, which has created ideal conditions for wildfires to start and spread.

Warmer temperatures: The temperatures in Canada have also been warmer than usual in recent months, which has also contributed to the dry conditions.

Lightning: Lightning is a common cause of wildfires, and there have been more lightning strikes in Canada this year than in previous years.

Human activity: Human activity, such as campfires, fireworks, and discarded cigarettes, can also cause wildfires.

It is important to note that the exact cause of each wildfire is still under investigation. However, the combination of dry weather, warmer temperatures, and lightning strikes has created a perfect storm for wildfires in Canada this year.

It's a vicious circle - forests help clean the atmosphere but global warming is burning down the forests.
