We hear your voicemail answers to last month's puzzler question regarding Larry, who thinks windmills are downright ugly.
This month's puzzler
You are chatting with a neighbor. Let's call her Joan. Joan has family in Florida who were affected by Hurricane Irma. You start talking about climate change and the connections you see to these current weather events. Joan interrupts you, "No you are wrong. Climate change has nothing to do with these hurricanes. They have always had hurricanes. Scientists make it clear that there is no way you can say climate change has anything to do with these storms."
So, is Joan right? How can you effectively and accurately talk about these weather events and climate change?
