Marc Munroe Dion in dailyherald: Applying modern American 'know-how' - or lack of it - to Indonesia's sinking capital city.
Jakarta is the capital of Indonesia. You might want to write that down the way I did before I started this column.
The government of Indonesia wants to move the capital away from Jakarta, to build a whole new city a long way away, and everyone who lives in Jakarta can go live in the new city, and poof! The problem, it is solved.It's gonna be a trick getting the 30 million people who live in and around Jakarta to move, but the thought of drowning in your living room is a strong persuader.
No. 1: Refuse to believe it's happening. Climate change is a myth, so it just looks like it's happening. Cities have been rising and falling naturally for millions of years. The next Ice Age will fix it. No. 4: Illegal wells? Don't Jakartans have the right to drill and keep wells? Anyway, these are illegal wells. What about law-abiding well owners? Will they outlaw wells in the new capital city? If you outlaw wells, only outlaws will have wells.No. 7: It's a conspiracy. The New World Order wants people to move to expensive"green" cities, so they're making the ocean rise.
