Apparently, the warming seas might well lead to the creation of (as yet off the scale) category 6 hurricanes and tropical storms (https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/sep/15/hurricane-category-6-this-is-how-world-ends-book-climate-change). They would make the damage currently being seen, in relation to Florence, pale into insignificance. And yet, climate change denial seems to be in the ascendancy, especially in Australia and the USA?
This blog may help people explore some of the 'hidden' issues involved in certain media treatments of environmental and scientific issues. Using personal digital images, it's also intended to emphasise seasonal (and other) changes in natural history of the Swansea (South Wales) area. The material should help participants in field-based modules and people generally interested in the natural world. The views are wholly those of the author.
