Energy and The Environment

Scientific American has a three part series out discussing how Climate Change is resulting in specific weather events.  Past articles I have seen tied Climate Change to weather patterns, but I have never seen anything  as specific as this where they are asserting that scientists can now tie the increasingly extreme weather patterns directly to climate change.

I have linked to the three articles below:

“Storm Warnings: Extreme Weather Is a Product of Climate Change”  (John Carey, Scientific American, June 28, 2011)

“Global Warming and the Science of Extreme Weather” (John Carey, Scientific American, June 29, 2011)
