Dubai in the UAE was hit by flooding that submerged roads and vehicles and caused flights to be diverted after a reported 158mm of rain fell in 24 hours, equivalent to the typical yearly average.
@AJEnglish @GretaThunberg Ten years from now the planet will be noticeably warmer and the weather will be more unpredictable than it is now. And ten years after that, and so on, for at least a century after fossil fuel use ends. Better get used to it, the point has been tipped.
@AJEnglish @GretaThunberg It is becoming very clear that nowhere on this planet is safe from the increasingly extreme weather due to the #ClimateCrisis, which somehow some people still deny is happening. #flooding #Dubai #ClimateChange
@AJEnglish What they chances that they have flood cover in their insurance policies?!!!!
