I say, let the fools drown if they’re too stupid to do anything about it:

Climate-change skeptics in Va. oppose preparations for sea-level rise

Over his long career as a public planner, Lewis Lawrence grew accustomed to the bland formalities of planning commission meetings in Virginia’s Middle Peninsula, […]

But lately, the meetings have gotten far more exciting - in a bad way, said Lawrence, acting executive director of the Middle Peninsula Planning District Commission. A well-organized and vocal group of residents has taken a keen interest in municipal preparations for sea-level rise caused by climate change, often shouting their opposition, sometimes while planners and politicians are talking.

The residents’ opposition has focused on a central point: They don’t think climate change is accelerated by human activity, as most climate scientists conclude. When planners proposed to rezone land for use as a dike against rising water, these residents, or “new activists” as Lawrence calls them, saw a trick to take their property.

“Environmentalists have always had an agenda to put nature above man,” said Donna Holt, leader of the Virginia Campaign for Liberty, a tea-party affiliate with 7,000 members. “If they can find an end to their means, they don’t care how it happens. If they can do it under the guise of global warming and climate change, they will do it.”

Outside of greater New Orleans, Hampton Roads is at the biggest risk from sea-level rise of any area its size in the United States, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The water has risen so much that Norfolk Naval Station is replacing 14 piers at $60 million each to keep ship-repair facilities high and dry.

When planners redesignated property as a future flood zone, activists said officials were acting on a hoax. They argued in meetings and online that local planners are unwitting agents of Agenda 21, a U.N. environmental action plan adopted in 1992 that the activists see as a global conspiracy to grab land and redistribute wealth in the United States.

The Alex-Jones-esque conspiracy mindset is suicidal idiocy by those with weak and lazy minds.
