Here is some truth this is not a global warming thing but something called tides. The tides surrounding the island have always been there & as tree roots have disappeared being the trees themselves there is nothing to hold the soil. The other is the center of the island has always been water so it is an Island of two ridges that are habitable. President Trump the only one to take an interest was working on building bulkheads and did so. The Army Corp of Engineers has known about the problems since I was a child with family there. They have done little but to watch it slip away. The trees were rapidly dying 60 plus years ago, the population has fastly declined also as the only way to get there is by boat or small plane. We spend so much $ on Biden’s never ending pipe dreams Tangier is just another example of how we could spend $ wiser.
The people of Holland Island disassembled there homes and reassembled them in Crisfield many years ago for this very same reason at no cost to the government. I suppose that is out of the question for today’s generation. It seems nothing can get done without government money. Very sad times in which we live.
A little truth in this but also a whole lot of BS. Obviously this guy is a global warming nut case.

It is not sea lever rise. The island is sinking.
