First, we need to know what the risks are. And no, this is not denialist speak, just one scientist who recognizes that our climate models are not designed to tell me in SC what risks – if any – climate change may pose for me.

Climate will certainly change, but it’s the weather that will bite us in the butt – or not. And all weather is local.
