Back in my days as a DEA agent, there was a joke about how the phrase, "It's snowing in Miami" was an overused bust signal for an undercover agent (wearing a wire) to say when the bad guys delivered cocaine to him/her. That was the signal for the surveillance agents to swoop in and arrest everybody. Maybe it came from Miami Vice-I don't know because I never watched that show.
At any rate, we have another example of lunacy out of UC Berkeley, aka Bezerkley, from a sociology professor named Daniel Aldana Cohen (moonlighting as a meteorologist) suggesting that maybe it's time to evacuate Miami due to climate change. Below is a Fox News report. Cohen and his co-writer, Samantha Schuyler (who does not advocate evacuating Miami) have written a piece in The Nation, a very leftist outfit. Schuyler is research director(!!) for The Nation. That link is here but there is a limited access subscriber block.
There is no point in debating this stuff point by point because, the authors apparently subscribe to the principle of intersectionality, which basically means you can link any two problems in the world, usually for purposes of blaming the US or Israel. As you can see, the writers drag in other issues-all "related" to climate change.
But now you know why they call it UC Bezerkely. Now there's a city that should be evacuated.
