Six years ago, North Carolina Republicans voted in a law decreeing that the seas weren't rising

“…voted in a law decreeing that the seas weren’t rising”

Good luck with telling the sea that.

The only way they could enforce that law is to get the Sand Guardian (aka Guardian of the Sand) to tell Poseidon to f*ck off.

Isn’t that basically the plot of the third Pirates of the Caribbean movie?

Only one thing left to do: North Carolina is going to have to arrest the ocean for breaking the law. It might be a tight squeeze getting it into their already overcrowded prison system, but the lawmakers have never worried about that before.

When it comes to climate change, sooner or later, it will.

Terraforming Mars is just a pipe dream right now; we better start getting our shit together here on Earth…

We know exactly how that will play out:

Half of the naysayers will claim that it would have happened anyways, due to the sun.

The other half will find a way to blame Democrats.

The ocean might be coming to turn itself in! Looks like they’re evacuating the prisons to make room.

While they’re tilting at windmills, perhaps they could legislate a gravity exemption for themselves and then take a nice, leisurely flight off the nearest tall building. Climate change, like gravity, doesn’t care if you believe in it or not.
