New York Times columnist Shawn Hubler, she paints an apocalyptic picture of the climate future:
“In the state that perfected if not invented the American summer, the smell of 17 million gallons of spilled sewage
lingered last week on a Southern California beach. There were bare rocks where snow once capped the Sierra Nevada and
bathtub rings
where water once glistened in Shasta Lake.
“Wildfires roared across the West, threatening the electrical grid, the smoke so thick it could be seen from space, pluming into the jet stream, delaying planes in Denver, turning the sun red in Manhattan, creating its own weather. Health authorities warned that recent Death Valley-style heat waves had contaminated shellfish from Washington State.
