Picture a river five miles wide and 400 feet deep, moving with such force that what is now a sheer cataract would have been nothing more than a ripple in the current. At the peak of the Missoula Floods, the landscape wasn't carved by a waterfall in the traditional...

Randall Carlson reconstructs the hydrology of the North American meltdown in terms that make the scale of the event viscerally clear. Throughout the Ice Age, seasonal melting was already producing water volumes far exceeding anything in the modern Mississippi system. When the great meltdown began in earnest, that volume multiplied dramatically. The Mississippi was not acting alone. The Minnesota River, the Ohio River, and the Missouri River were all simultaneously carrying massively augmented meltwater flows - glacial outbursts and seasonal discharge on a scale that has no modern equivalent - and feeding all of it into the Mississippi. The river was moving an enormous sediment load southward under that volume of water, and when it reached the Gulf of Mexico it encountered a standing body of water. The energy that had been carrying sediment in suspension suddenly dissipated, and the sediment dropped. The delta began to build. What the diverse environmental indicators preserved in that sediment record show is the speed of what followed. Earth's climate did not gradually drift toward modern conditions over tens of thousands of years. Randall cites evidence suggesting the transition from Ice Age conditions to something approximating the modern climate occurred in less than a millennium - a geological instant that compressed an enormous climatic shift into a timeframe that human populations alive at the time would have experienced within a handful of generations.

The Devastating Affects Of The Idaho Farmland Water Shutoff 🚨 UPDATE: “I've talked to the Governor, and the Governor's position is he can't do anything about this” “The, the Department of Water Resources, in the governor's office has sent out the order that they gotta close their wells. That is really a tough deal because these farmers have already planted, the timing on this is horrible. It costs $2,000 an acre to plant potatoes or more, dollars 2,000 to 3,000. Um, and now they have to shut down the wells and give up that investment. Their land is mortgaged, the potato crops are mortgaged, everything's financed, they will basically lose their farms if they turn their water off. We're having one of the best water years that we've had in the last decade. There's more water than they know what to do with. In this kind of a year, they're deciding that they're going to close down 500,000 acres because of because of the new formula that have been introduced on the prerogative, I guess, of the Department of of Water Resources. None of it makes any sense. So they would say they're following through with this agreement that they had put in place a few years ago, and the farmers should have known. I've talked to the governor, and the governor's position is he can't do anything about this because it's mentioned in the constitution and the supreme court has weighed in, but honestly, when I talk to the attorneys they're saying that's that's not a truthful version of what the facts are. The governor's office has a whole lot of prerogative, the Department of Water Resources has the prerogative on how to interpret these laws. By the way, the law does give priority to the folks that have senior water rights, so that's parcelled true. But the governor, I'm gonna plead that the governor exercised leadership here and that the legislature exercise some leadership and put, build some framework. What we need to have them do is build some framework around these agreements and around the laws so that, um, we don't lose all of our agriculture in this area and that appears to be the plan.”
