Addressing the last question: Because most of us are content to keep voting for those who will keep the gravy flowing to them. They just complain when the weather flows to them, and then they haul out that tired complaint about "climate change".

I also wonder why so many people place themselves (geographically speaking) in positions where their homes are at high risk of destruction from the elements, then complain when the elements attack their homes. I guess it started when the federal government started providing flood insurance to people building houses along coastal areas. Or those building houses in Tornado Alley, except that the Federal government doesn't make available tornado insurance to people in Oklahoma. They'll send FEMA to help with the clean-up, but they won't insure the houses like they will those along the coastal areas.

One other minor point: A hectare is 2.47 acres, so your math about 29,000 acres = 68,000 hectares is backwards. The numbers are reversed.
