Any More

LYRICS
Not that sure
Any more
What’s in store
For your future
All depends
On what we do
Who up-ends the classic view
Decisions that we make
Give versus take
Will we wake?
(Gotta wake up. I’ve gotta wake up. You’ve gotta wake up. We’ve gotta wake up.)\

What came before
May come no more
What’s in store
For your future
All depends
On what we do
Who up-ends the classic view
Decisions that we make
Give versus take
Will we wake?
(Gotta wake up. I’ve gotta wake up. You’ve gotta wake up. We’ve gotta wake up.)\

The rains pour
More and more
What’s in store
For your future
All depends
On what we do
Who up-ends the classic view
Decisions that we make
Give versus take
Will we wake?
(Gotta wake up. I’ve gotta wake up. You’ve gotta wake up. We’ve gotta wake up.)

What will be the changing topography caused by extreme rain events? You can kind-of imagine Eastern and Western North America as giant beaches with ever increasing atmospheric waves splashing down on us. The Gulf Coast will be hit from both sides. We to see increasing intensity and/or frequency in a wide variety of violent rain events including: downpours, flooding, hurricanes, cyclones, monsoons, coastal flooding, storm surges, lightning and wildfires, hail, extreme wind, and concurrent extremes. The reign of violent rain has already begun. More hillsides and shorelines are collapsing. Atmospheric rivers are dramatically increasing flash flooding in the Northeastern USA. Worldwide, stormwater systems are becoming overwhelmed. Ironically, the streets of Abu Dhabi and Dubai, UAE, flooded days before the COP28 Climate Conference. Nowhere is safe from violent rain, not even in the desert preparing for a UN meeting on the climate crisis. As a result of increasing violent rain, new drainage culverts are forming. Eventually, the culverts will transform into recurring streams, carving new canyons, creating new landscapes and islands. Increased wildfires and landslides will transform topography. At the same time as the violent rain makes its way to the sea, the sea is rising to meet the violent rain. What do you think will happen to the floodplains in North America?
