Kamala Harris, former Vice President, recently purchased an $8.2 million mansion in Malibu, California, raising eyebrows due to her ongoing warnings about climate change and rising sea levels.
• Harris's mansion is located in a coastal area she has previously identified as at risk due to climate change.
• A climate model from the Biden-Harris administration indicated that nearby beaches, like Point Dume State Beach, could face severe flooding and erosion.
• Harris has long advocated for climate action, including co-sponsoring the Living Shorelines Act aimed at funding projects to combat sea level rise.
• She has consistently highlighted the risks of climate change during her political career, emphasizing the need for mitigation efforts to protect coastal communities.
• The mansion features amenities, such as a gas stove and fireplace, which are in conflict with the Biden-Harris administration’s regulations aimed at reducing gas consumption.
• The purchase comes as former President Barack Obama also faced criticism for buying a luxury home in a coastal area projected to be underwater in 75 years.
Harris's purchase of the Malibu home raises questions about the sincerity of her climate change rhetoric given her recent investment in a property located in a vulnerable coastal region. Many view this action as contradictory to her public stance on environmental threats.
