- Beneath Chicago's streets, underground heat caused by climate change is creating a silent hazard that is affecting the city's infrastructure. NBC News' Maura Barrett goes underground to feel the heat and understand how the issue could be fixed.

Is there ANYTHING they won't blame on climate change?
Exactly...! Unbelievable...!!!
no, they even blame cloud seeding on humans, can you believe it?
Hey man a torrential downpour in the desert ruined 40 sheets of gel tab. It was at burning man. Climate change is real.
@@BillyCrystal-hc5jp I heard the bass player in Trippy Hippy in the wrong key! That was CC for sure!
@@scillyautomatic reduce carbon emissions in the name of good acid man. Save the tabs🤣
Unless you build a citadel that is designed to last a thousand years or more, all unjoined skyscrapers will fall.
Reason 10 billion and one not to live in a city.
Just throw money at it, that works for everything else.
😂
What was the infastructure bill for then?

What would be expected if you build skyscrapers with concrete & iron that’s tons and tons of weight. Eventually it will sink. This is just common sense.
Call Venice. Tutto bene. So...Kelp. UK concrete. Or American asphalt. Universal Bullshyad?
Underground heat? Theres alot of things to worry about so dont have to add old ones ok. Its not cute
Also...
Buildings, building foundations, roads, and 'water management' deny natural sediment replenishment. Which used to offset coastal water encroachment.
Flood water that would spread out across large areas and slowly move sediment is now forced directly into canals and ditches and sent into rivers or the intra-coastal/ocean without a chance to pick up the same amount of sediment and spread it along the coastal wetlands.
Decomposition of plant matter to make new organic soil can't happen on roads, parking lots, house roofs, etc.
Add in that many areas have had human caused pressure decreases in aquifers that outpace aquifer recharge. Lower pressure in aquifers leads to aquifer collapse, which is the sinking of the rock and ground over the aquifer.
'Water management' often exacerbates floods as well. If you live on a river and there are municipalities upstream of you, those municipalities force storm water immediately into the river. A lot of that water would have made it to the river, but over the course of weeks as it first sits on the ground (which is unacceptable for agriculture and livestock land) and then slowly drains to the river as ground water.
Instead we force all urban, suburban, agriculture, and livestock storm water immediately in the rivers, and it all hits the towns and cities downstream at the same time.
A lot of rail travel is also got an issue because of earthquakes and the ground shifting from them
What are they clay mixed with iron? The towers of babel
Fun fact! The earth has been in an overall cooling trend for the last 6,000 years!
Fun fact! The earth has had an unprecedented increase in temperature in less than 200 years. A record speed that’s never been seen in 500 million years. =D
@@Timorias
Not completely unprecedented.
UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change:
"On the other hand, very rapid warming at the start of the Bölling-Alleröd period, or at the end of the Younger Dryas may have occurred at rates as large as 10°C/50 years for a significant part of the Northern Hemisphere."
Now we are sinking. LOL!!! These people just won't stop. It's like a sickness.
Yes. You are. Spreading lies is a sickness you have.
😂😂😂😂
Hurry up and give corrupt politicians more of your money so they can stop the weather 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂
And so castles made of sand

This is a laugh. It is NOT from global warming.
It is from... toaster ovens? Right wingers crying when they visit an educated area? What are the conservative gut feelings about this?
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
If all of our cities are sinking, the Devil and all of his Demons are about to have a lot of company.

Earth: *Rotates*

By volume, the dry air in Earth's atmosphere is about 78.08 percent nitrogen, 20.95 percent oxygen, and 0.93 percent argon. A brew of trace gases accounts for the other approximately 0.04 percent, including the greenhouse gases carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and ozone. To think that a small increase (200 parts per million in the last hundred years) of carbon dioxide would affect the weather is ridiculous.
Would you drink a cup of coffee that's 200 parts per million arsenic? Because that would be lethal.
Googling the earth’s atmosphere to make this point just shows you lack a basic understanding of physics and chemistry
@@brmadden895
That is a really bad comparison.
@@yodieyuh care to elaborate?
@@brmadden895
Arsenic is lethal at around 200ppm.
CO2 is lethal somewhere upwards of 40,000 ppm.
And.
The OP comment is about changes in global weather.
Which you compared to poisoning a human.
I would be fine with Miami sinking. We don't really need it after all.
I live on Naracansant Bay in RI. I have lived here since 1975 and I haven't seen the water rise one inch in the 48 years I've lived here still waiting for my hose to be underwater!. Climate change is fiction I know I live it!
Sea level has risen about 6 inches in that area since you moved there
The crap about climate change gets more silly with every passing day.Cities are heavy.Heavy things sink.Duhhh.
Don't try and talk facts and science with a group that believes God is real.
@@seventhanubis6930 you can't afford it.
@@seventhanubis6930 Nope. Faith would be believing something with no evidence. As soon as you start measuring, it's not longer faith.
This guys is trying to profit off a fake problem, some of yall are buying the propaganda.
And don't try talking with facts and science with people who think men can get periods and that the weather can get better if we pay more taxes and give more control to politicians with yachts, private jets, and ocean-front mansions.

Lies god in charge of world lies
This is a stupid story.
Ha ha ha!! How is fear mongering working for you? You're wrong. Laughably so 😂 Glad I don't follow you folks. 😅
Hopefully it happens suddenly without warning. The country would be better off if millions just disappeared overnight
What a Joke
