Vermont Dam Continues To Inch Closer To Capacity Amid Catastrophic, Historic Flooding

FOX Weather meteorologist Ian Oliver is live in Montpelier, Vermont, amid historic and catastrophic flooding across the state. Officials warn a local dam is about 1 foot from its capacity, and if water begins to spill over it could lead to more flooding in the state's capital city. #flooding #vermont #weather #foxweather

Have we crossed the point of no return in terms of damaging the planet? There is no such point. We need to trust that our thought, which is our greatest quality, can change nature. We only need to understand the direction to which we should aim our thoughts. What should we think about? What condition or state should we aspire to and ask for?
In order to save our planet, we should think about positive human connections. That is, how can we, in our connections, keep nature safe? How can we all together protect our world? If we truly wish to better our planet, then we should see people holding a concern for how to positively connect everywhere that we look.
It has nothing to do with recycling or other activities that we commonly associate with as being sustainable. If we come closer to and consider each other, that we will reach an entirely organic, perfectly connected and round state, then the negative forces will disappear from the world.
We need to understand that if we start thinking better about each other, then the planet will recover from all harm, because our thoughts are the strongest force in nature. Likewise, our negative thoughts about each other are entirely to blame for damaging the planet. That is why the more we recycle and invest in energies and activities that we commonly think of as being sustainable, the worse our planet becomes. Nothing will work to benefit us until we reach a state where our attitude changes toward each other for the better to protect and improve our planet.

Let's earmark a some of the billions of Ukraine money and send it to Vermont. Time to help Americans.

The oil companies knew this was coming 50 years ago, but preferred their profits over people's lives.

I will raise up against Babylon (US) a destroying wind to those that are against me. Jeremiah 51:1. Jeremiah 50 also speaks to us.

If every natural event is considered historic and then the history books 20 years from now are going to be 3 foot thick.

Interesting, all the different ways to mispronounce "Montpelier" you learn from watching all the reports on the flooding.

'That water's at least up to your... ankles, Ian!' 🤔 Pretty rough for the residents of the area though

First of all prayers and blessings to all who are affected by this flood. I was flooded out myself in Scranton Pennsylvania in 1985. I lost a lot of personal items, keepsakes and many electronic devices worth thousands of dollars. But when it floods, you have two choices as a human.

First choice’s, move to higher ground or far away. Second choice you must rebuild your building 5 feet above the current flood level, and that takes wisdom. So please use the wisdom that God helps you gain to rebuild smartly or to not rebuild at all. Especially in a time where people are crying about us, killing the planet just think of all the chemicals, insulation sheet rock paint, asphalt concrete, and other materials to get washed down stream eventually into the ocean. I wish you all better luck, Godspeed and a prosperous future if you use your wisdoms. ❤️✝️🇺🇸 if you own the property, then get an estimate to Jack the house up 8 feet, put a new 1st floor or ground floor and lower the house back down on the new higher foundation. GOD speed and good luck. Trust the wisdoms GOD hands to you.

Remember, "they" say.
No such thing as global warming with these extremes.

I was brainstorming last night about the deluge of rain maybe a group of people seeded clouds using the Canadian fires like we did during operation popeye

Why were people not warned about the severity of this storm? This is worse than the tropical storm Irene. No one talked about how much water this storm would bring. It makes me question whether this was a man made storm.

People in texas: it's just summer guys

People in vermont : its just a little rain...

That’s what happens when Ben & Jerry’s refuse to get back to the Coosuck Abenaki Tribal chief about giving back their stolen land. 😂
