  7. I have said for years the authorities need to dredge these rivers by at least 1meter deeper it may cost a lot of money but would elleviate part of this disaster save money in the long run and more importantly save lives

  13. Storms cause rivers to swell across Europe in Autumn, hold the front page.
    Yes this is man made … more houses are being built and the drainage has not been upgraded for decades. This is government / town planning incompetence and the people responsible should be held to account.

  18. Prawda jest taka że Czechy specjalnie wypuściły ze zbiornikow retencyjnych nadmiar wody i specjalnie zatopily Polskę, to już raz bylo w 1997 roku ,teraz to powtorzyli😡😡, poczytajcie jak powinni to robić ,powinni powoli spuszczać wodę a oni, Czechy najpierw prztrzymali wodę w zbiornikach retencyjnych a potem otworzyli i dlatego zatopili Polskę ,to jest zrobione specjalnie bo Polacy są nie pokorni i nie dają się wciągnąć w. w.ojne w krainie na u,skasowali mi już jeden wpis bo prawdę piszę ❗❗❗

  19. I wonder if the big guy upstairs is trying to tell europe something. I am not even superstitious or religious.

  22. These phenomen that are happening in the unexpected places and season are so easy to explain by climate change Scientists who are studying these for the longest time. but some group of people are hiding what's truly happening?

  31. We must all believe that there is a powerful creator from heavens who created all the things and can destroy also everything! The holy biblical events.

  33. This is happening because we are completely failing at manipulating the global weather patterns! And it will NOT stop until people get their heads out of their a**es and takes it seriously!
