Ignoring science is foolhardy in Florida storms era
Retired Chronicle Journal editor Ian Pattison argues that denial of climate change by leaders like DeSantis, Trump, and Poilievre worsens hurricane impacts on Florida. He cites World Weather Attribution data, Stefan Rahmstorf, and others, warning that fossil fuels drive stronger storms and higher seas. He contrasts scientific consensus with political rhetoric and urges action over ideology.
