1. Daniel Swain:

   In a warming climate, the severity of droughts in places like the Southwest and California are being driven by increasing evaporative demand, essentially, the atmosphere is requiring more water as temperatures rise, so you’d actually need more precipitation than you used to have to balance that out — and we’re not necessarily seeing more precipitation than we used to.

2. Daniel Swain:

   The face of droughts is changing, it’s easier and easier to get into a drought – even following a really wet winter – because we just have that growing evaporative demand and hotter summers.

3. Oscar Rojas:

4. Daniel Swain:

   As disruptive and as damaging as this year’s flooding has been, it’s still nowhere near close to what we foresee is the plausible worst-case scenario, we know that climate change is essentially putting the weather on steroids and giving us greater and greater chances of seeing these extremely heavy precipitation events and severe floods, even as we also see more severe droughts and that in the same part of the world.

5. Bob Ward:

   The only reason why people think that cleaner living is more expensive is because they are forgetting about the hidden costs of our current reliance on fossil fuels, people are paying for the impacts of climate change through increased risks of coastal flooding, increased risk of land flooding, increased risk of droughts, increased risk of heatwaves.
