New Hampshire has a red-headed stepchild it is hiding in the basement. Since 2012 catastrophic sea level rise has fallen. That’s not news. Neither were power lines causing the Maui “wildfires.” Another climate “catastrophe that’s not newsworthy is Maui’s collapsing tide levels.
Since at least 2019 the tide gauge at Kahului, Hawaii, on the Islan od Maui, has shown a sharp downward trend.
If I were Time magazine or Newsweek or CNN, I’d have a beautiful graphic of how, historically, the tides are receding. I’m not them, nor o I need to beautify the decline, but I can isolate it from the image above to make the point with a big arrow for effect.
While the world watches Hawaii annex the burned areas for some new social engineering project still to be named, the surrounding ocean has abandoned the narrative.
In nearby Kawaihae, they are experiencing a similar decline.
Hilo and Honolulu have similar profiles, but everywhere you look, there’s a declining trend, not as pronounced or prolonged as New Hampshire’s, but enough that, if the approved narrative were receding seas, you’d not hear the end of it.
And isn’t that truly the point?
None of this has much to do with anything related to the climate, and that represents a significant threat to human liberty and prosperity.
