In response to the recent hurricane in North Carolina, I would like to address the underlying causes and potential solutions.
Firstly, it is important to recognize that the Trump tax break for the wealthy resulted in reduced funding for FEMA, a crucial agency responsible for emergency response and disaster relief. Additionally, some of the funds allocated for constructing the Mexico border wall were also sourced from FEMA.
Secondly, it is crucial to dispel the notion that the Democratic Party is solely responsible for these challenges. In fact, I conducted an essay on global warming during my college years, and the majority of my information was derived from government documents and scientific research conducted by climatologists.
It is evident that North Carolina, along with other states such as Florida, Texas, and Louisiana, is at a heightened risk of becoming hurricane hotspots in the future due to the ongoing effects of climate change. Unfortunately, many individuals in North Carolina have been reluctant to acknowledge the scientific consensus on climate change, choosing to deny its existence until they personally experience its impacts. This denial often leads to a backlash against those who have been warning about the impending consequences.
While the recent hurricane may have been severe, it is important to recognize that future hurricanes will likely be even more devastating due to the ongoing rise in ocean temperatures. This phenomenon is governed by fundamental physical principles that cannot be altered, regardless of political affiliation.
In conclusion, addressing the challenges posed by climate change requires a collective effort from both Republicans and Democrats. It is essential to acknowledge the scientific evidence and take proactive steps to mitigate the impacts of rising ocean temperatures. By doing so, we can protect vulnerable communities and ensure a more sustainable future for all.

Vote blue to save America from a party that won’t even come back to Washington to vote for disaster aid.
