Naming Storms After Climate Change Deniers
Here’s a splendid notion from an organization called Climate Name Change. They’re proposing that hurricanes and storms should no longer be named after folks like Sandy, Katrina and Andrew, but after the likes of Sen. Marco Rubio and Rep. Darrell Issa, who have sold out to the climate change denial lobby. [readon]
The World Meteorological Office, which names storms, will doubtless be leery of doing this. Still, you can sign a petition that will be sent to them, saying:
As scientific evidence shows that climate change is creating increasingly frequent and devastating storms, and with climate scientists declaring these extreme weather events as the new normal, we propose a new naming system – a system that names extreme storms caused by climate change after the policy makers who deny climate change and obstruct climate policy.
