about the dyke systems in Holland and efforts in south Florida to battle rising seas. During the report, she never mentioned 'climate change' or 'global warming'. When she attempted an explanation of the problem, she simply said water levels were rising "for whatever reason". FOR WHATEVER FUCKING REASON?? Are these people being forbidden to use those words? Wouldn't surprise me.
