The severe storms ARE ALREADY increasing! It’s widely reported – globally – and has been the trend for the last 4/5 years now. New record flooding/droughts/rainstorms (NYC, May, new record)..heat (Pakistan, May)…the list is huge. Great article Nathan. This should be required reading to all – especially those members of the US Congress who, in their support of 1) tar sands oil and 2) methane-releasing fracking, are by definition either/or 1) ignorant 2) apathetic 3) severely unintelligent or 4) openly hostile to the present and future human race. Great story, Nathan.
