If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Caught any fish allready?
Then again, in Germany close to the borders of the Netherlands, they had a flood of about 3 meters high last year, rushing through the streets. * No really all this climate change is just humbug *. Whoehahahaha

Didn't see any fish, but many Eastern Brown Snakes, up to about 0.5m.
Unbelievable damage done by these floods, and the water won't get to the ocean until well into next year...

I know what it's like. In the '90s we had several floods from the Mosa river and the Rhine. I lived than in Maastricht. My feet didn't get wet. But the villages a few miles downstream had the water up to a meter high. Also there were several mudstreams in the villages, mainly because of silly ploughing by the farmers.
Government took than meassurements by broading the rivers. So the water couldn't rise so high.
But the violence of a swollen river is frightening.
The floods in Germany last year flushed away complete brick-and-mortar houses. This has never occured before.
It's time to take climate measurements, or else the human civilisation will be decimated.

It is indeed.
We have a river at the bottom of the garden and normally it is about 15cm deep, and maybe two meters wide.
The channel it runs in however ... that's 30m across, and maybe 8m deep.
And when it rains on the mountains, 6 hours later it's full, and moving like a train. It can rip out fully grown trees, and carry boulders taller than I am down stream. Impressive to watch from a distance; frightening close up!

We'd call that a creek over here. If you can't pilot a motorboat on it, it ain't a river.

You never had floods that high before the climate changed (as it always has)? I'll bet you've some old-timers there who could tell tales.

I'm assuming it's a stock image; Google also shows her on a Canadian dentist's site in an article about "dental potholes".

I found that Walmart has some employees that were out-of-work from some highly technical fields, and they stayed a Walmart. It was easy work and they had an almost guaranteed long term job. Less stress. Stable company.
Walmart gets all types.

Awesome! I should rotate the stock regularly and we can make a game of it.
