Climate change can no longer be viewed as a distant threat that may disrupt the lives of our grandchildren, but one that may be singled out as a factor, possibly a critical factor, in the storm that flooded your house last week. The science of extreme weather attribution brings climate change to our doorsteps.
See the new report from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine that has ‘outlined a rigorous, defensible, science-based system of extreme weather attribution to determine which events are tied to climate change’.
