Why this hurricane season felt off

One quiet season for U.S. impacts does not mean climate scientists were wrong. It means that we got lucky. Scientists predicted favorable conditions for intense hurricanes, and we got three Category 5 hurricanes.

“Jaws in Concert” was a Splash

The Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra played the score of the film live, while the movie itself was projected above the musicians. It was a beautiful performance and an affectionate tribute to such a famous film. 

A shortcut on climate science is a dead end

Climate policy will always involve cost tradeoffs. However, we should not tilt the scale by ignoring evidence or skipping review.
