the port of san diego, here in san diego, have all sorts of coastal structures at risk and jakarta, indonesia is relocating the capital of the country because they've been battling sea rise for 20 plus years. and here the train tracks are undersea, and it will take several billion to reroute it. who is going to pay for that? when disaster happens, the he can -- the techniques haven't been. and countries like netherlands doing a wonderful job with the delta, and how they're interacting at the coast line and then change the topic into geopolitics, what samantha does is really describes how humans interact in a policy manner. i touch on policy a little bit. >> yeah, we should mention, you know, here in california we can't stop talking about wildfires, is our predominant natural disaster, but on the southeast, flooding is the big issue, right. and where we have a case of this was the delimar cliffs and what we're going to do about that, it will have to be public money to realign the train tracks there. but, yeah, these are the issues that we're dealing with now across the country. >> and it's not
