Glad to hear his home is safe for now, and hope it remains so. Climate change has impacted so much of the world. My fear is we've tipped too far over the edge of global warming, so extreme winds, unaccustomed fluctuations in temperatures and too much rainfall in too little time is the new norm.

Oh, we are there all right. I would be quite surprised if climate change and weather catastrophes don’t accelerate. But I don’t believe we’ve crossed some sort of tipping point. I think it’s remediable. It just that humans are ill equipped to make the changes necessary, and we will dabble at the edges while we dither and debate until it’s much much worse.
