There is no such thing as a stabilized environment. Let's just focus on waterway pollution. That's about the only thing we can feasibly control.

Upper Mississippi freezes every year. It just depends on how thick the ice is and how long it stays frozen. Be more worried about the Bald Eagle nesting and their ability to fish.

One of 3 things will happen. Most likely to least likely 1. We developed carbon sequestration technology and everyone gets to keep doing what we've always done, a few million die. Noone has to admit they were wrong. 2. The problem gets worse, a couple billion people die from famine a few million more to war. Then we acclimate, but life changes for 100's of years as we stabilize the climate. 3. We all agree this is a problem, learn to live with less, until we completely change our combustion based economy, and feed/ pay reparations to the climate refugees.

Wow that’s interesting. The Great Flood of 1927 flooded out many Negro Towns during that flood not only Greenville, MS.

They lost all of their land and rights during that flood. There is an article written by Yale University titled (“THE RED CROSS IS NOT ALL RIGHT!” HERBERT HOOVER’S CONCENTRATION CAMP COVER-UP IN THE 1927 MISSISSIPPI FLOOD!!)

I also think it can change with a decent replacement for the conveniences we have. In my area, we use solar panels for 25% of our energy.

As well as Nikola Tesla's idea of Perpetual Energy. -I can literally see a day where a lot of homes in this country are powered by Hydrogen and Solar together.

Would it even be possible without digging all the way down to bedrock? And even if you did that, would the surrounding soil simply start to erode and fall into the now deep river bed (filling it back up with mud but also eroding away the usable land surrounding the river). Is the muddiness even due to the natural soil of the river bed, or is it carried down as silt from the creeks and rivers that feed the Mississippi (and again would therefore be re-muddied after a few years)?

That is the natural way the river is. It’s not supposed to be clear & the “muddy” nature of the river not due to the wreckage or anything that needs to be cleaned up.

Lmao its sad that hardly anyone has said anything about that. People are so brainless and will believe just about anything they see on the news without question. 145 MPG on a truck... Nice. 🤡

There is also no way a barge gets 645 miles per gallon. This is all wrong information. Completely wrong and useless.

I looked up the stat. Its 145 miles per gallon per average ton of cargo. The graphic doesn't do the stat justice, so its misleading. But barges are the more fuel efficient route of the 3, just not time efficient by any means.

Ok glad I wasn't the only one - I looked into it more though and I think she just mispoke - it should be comparing how many "TON-MILES" per gallon of gas, so for a truck carrying 22 tons of freight and getting the average 6.5 mpg, it would factually be moving each ton 145 miles per gallon of gas the truck burns to move all of it. This assumes full weight. It is ALSO true that the barge is more efficient than the trucks per ton-mile when they are both filled up. The report she mentions also says barges move freight more efficiently than rail - but barges still have to use trucks to get to the final destination, whereas many industries are well-plugged into rail networks and overall more efficient - a fact not included in her analysis that was commissioned by the U.S. National Waterways Foundations. I actually respect this producer/reporter team a lot for leaving that very misleading efficiency comparison with rail out of the segment. I have no financial stake in freight rail or personal/ideologic/family connection with the industry - but I do love efficiency. The full report can be found here: www.transportation.gov/sites/dot.gov/files/docs/emissions_analysis_of_freight.pdf Of note, page 38 of the report has a graphic from the analysis that strongly implies that if freight logistics networks prioritized CO2 emission reductions over optimizing time alone, then (45 vs 18hrs)!! If the U.S. ditches the very un-resilient "just in time philosophy" currently permeating industrial logistics and we use data to better optimize our supply chains with good engineering (not "special AI technology advances" just employing more supply chain management engineers) - the U.S. can reduce the largest emitter of greenhouse gases in the U.S. (transportation) by 24%. That change is conservative and doesn't include reductions of air-freight - meaning first class/priority mail would still be maintained despite the 80% reductions. Add in last-mile delivery emissions reductions with transition to long-life electric commercial vehicles and we have a really good recipe for hitting national emissions targets. Love this stuff.
