Literal sightseeing in disaster zones is sadly a very common thing. Really hard to comprehend that some people think that is a good idea.

Yeah. Basic human decency says to help, not gawk. Absolute insanity that people would think any other way.

Wonderful read. I'm lucky that my family back home avoided the worst of it but it cut off the power. I pray that the rebuilding effort will be enough.

Great article. These so-called Climate Havens are in for a rough time in the years to come. People in coastal communities that regularly get hit by hazards have a bit of a built-in resilience because most of the community has been through a disaster before. But there are lots of communities that the threatened area has expanded into and not only are there people not ready for a hazard like this, they don't even expect it.
