Just to be clear, I like your post but not the drought! Lake Mead has only less than 3 feet before 12 of its 17 generators have to be shut off due to cavitation risk. What ever happened to our magic wand?

A very dear friend died of endometriosis years ago. There were teeth and hair in her endometrium! Ponstel helped her for a few years, along with other meds, but then it spread to her spine, etc.

Bronzewing nest in a tree near my home! #birds

Photo of a Common Bronzewing sitting on a nest in the fork of a eucalypt tree. The Bronzewing is a medium-sized pigeon in subtle shades of purple, brown, blue-grey, and white, with a buff forehead (indicating that it is male). The nest is made of sticks.

A huge increase in climate change-induced flood risk from sea level rise, heavier rainfall, and stronger/slower-moving hurricanes is nearly certain to force abandonment of portions of the U.S. Gulf and Atlantic coasts by late this century, even under a moderate global warming scenario. 1/7

I lived in Boulder for nearly ten years and still have friends there and in Gunbarrel and Longmont. Man, that's too hot. I remember summer days in the low 90s, but 100s? Not in the 70s or 80s. I wonder now about the pine beetles and dry trees so vulnerable.

This is a much bigger problem than most have even heard of. Left unchecked, the PFAS chemicals may well sterilize the planet. Look up Shanna Swan's studies and book called Countdown. Nature provides a lot of redundancy in the system, but that won't solve the problem, only delay its finality.
