NPR Climate Report, Galveston Seawall History

An NPR report links melting Antarctic glaciers to the future of Galveston, Texas. The report references the Great Galveston Hurricane of 1900, which remains the deadliest natural disaster in US history. The hosts point out that the city's 17-foot seawall has protected the island for over a century despite "climate change" rhetoric.
