This is the climate crisis, it's happening now, and here is what it looks like “Why does it seem that every single day brings a forecast with the word “record” or “unprecedented?” Because it really is unorcedented. Because this is the climate crisis. It’s not something that will happen at some unspecified time in the future. It’s not something that will happen to unfortunate people somewhere far away. The climate crisis is here and now. It’s driving tornadoes through American towns. Drowning American farms under floods. Battering American coasts with storms. And destroying the homes, businesses, and lives of Americans across the country.” Mark Sumner
