Tornadoes, flooding, and fires, Oh My! With the death tolls rising from more record-breaking weather events, one can't help but wonder if Americans watching CNN, listening to the radio and reading the news are indeed, finally, connecting the dots between what climate scientists had predicted in terms of more destructive storm events, and what we are now witnessing. We'll put that question to my favorite climate commentator, Joseph Romm, who also discusses other timely topics on his blog. Next we'll meet Wendy Benchley, wife of the late Peter Benchley, who wrote and produced 'Jaws'. Benchley will preview the 4th annual Ocean Awards and share her thoughts on the state of our oceans and its endangered inhabitants.
