We have not heard much about climate change lately, but it hasn't gone away. According to NASA, March through July this year were each globally the hottest such months on record. This year may well exceed 2005 as the hottest year recorded. Although wildfires in Russia, floods in Pakistan, floods and landslides in China, severe winter storms in the eastern U.S. earlier this year and our summer temperatures this year cannot unequivocally be ascribed individually to climate change, the increasing frequency of such events is consistent with predictions."
