Strange Weather

Germany and the impact of extreme weather | DW Documentary



Whole areas washed away by the floods, entire villages wiped out, houses destroyed. More than 160 people have died. Despite excellent infrastructure and sound disaster relief, the effects of extreme weather on Germany are devastating.

On the night of 15 July, storms destroyed whole swaths of land in North Rhine-Westphalia and Rhineland-Palatinate. Shortly afterwards, heavy rain ravaged Bavaria and wreaked havoc in the Netherlands, Austria, and Belgium. Only in the days that followed did the full extent of the catastrophe become apparent.

Now, people are returning to their homes, or what’s left of them. They are overwhelmed by their own helplessness and by the force and speed with which entire livelihoods have been wiped out. Now, the big cleanup begins—which will take years. How are people in the affected regions coping?

So sorry sisters and brothers. We are passing through hard moments in the world. In this situations we become in one unit. We should be preparing and executing work to save ourselves, not to be rich and spend money without any sense. Respect from Mexico. We are having same trouble now.

I also think things happen with the earth's subsoil. Of course, the inner core of the world is growing because humans have been taking oil and gas out of the earth since 1846, and therefore there is room for the inner core to grow, and therefore the heat of the earth is growing from within.

Sad it take some of the most devastating things on earth to make people come together and support and help each other regardless of political parties,or if you believe in the vaccine or you dont, or pray to God or Scientist

It should be resolved so that it does not happen in the future.

If climate change scares you, come to Jesus and your fear will change to joy. If you don't have a Bible, download one of the Bible apps to your phone. Read or listen to the whole Bible, or at least,, read the gospel of John…it's my favorite of the 4 gospels. Repent and give your life to Christ and trust in Him. What is happening in this world today has been prophesied about throughout the whole Bible. Things are going to get worse, much worse and in ways you may not be able to even imagine. Believers and followers of Christ are not appointed unto God's wrath. Open your eyes and your heart. You are loved. Praying for you all.

Contrails from airlines are the cause and the fletner ships offshore are spraying sea water into sky to change the weather. Your being scammed by the government's.

It is time to repent and believe in Jesus and be saved and baptized. The Rapture and Anticrist will soon come, read the Bible what is happening now and later.

Muito triste 😢, pelas imagens vemos o sofrimento das pessoas, os resgates, a destruição, as pessoas se ajudando. Deus cuide de todas essas famílias, gostaria de saber como estão todos agora.

Maria Rocha December 11, 2021 at 12:33 am

03:02 Deus não tem nada a ver com isso Senhora, a culpa é da humanidade, que com sua ganância fica destruindo a natureza, agora vem as consequências.
Ele nos deu um mundo maravilhoso, mais os homem só pensam em destruir , com guerras, desmatando florestas, agora todos estão vendo o q as pessoas mais pobres passam, quem sabe pensem melhor ao destratar seu próximo.

Burning everything that will burn will help the cleanup process go faster.. Wait until it dries out, then burn it. Spray down the mud. Use chlorine water inside as fast as possible. Mold will be the biggest enemy as it dries out.

M-A December 25, 2021 at 10:36 am

Its sad how they all blame God for their predicament. Climate change is nature's way to adjust to what humans are doing. Sad.

So horrible, these extreme weather events are going to keep happening now. Floods and wildfires more and more often everywhere. I didn’t hear about this at the time, I listen to the American news but all they talk about is Covid and how evil Russia is.

HAHAHAHAHAHA GOOD FOR THEM

Biibi Kiki March 2, 2022 at 7:26 pm

Every time i see disasters like this it makes me cry. To think that in this modern time we would be able to prevent things like this from happening. Yet it is human's arrogance and greed that caused more of such disasters. I hope the survivors find peace and god bless them.

pissoutmyassable March 9, 2022 at 7:04 pm

Oh, I think there plenty of German words to describe such events…
