Meteorologists have never seen a storm like this. It took under 2 days for Melissa to grow from a tropical storm to one of the largest Atlantic hurricanes of all time. How did this even happen? Watch this to see how climate change is supercharging hurricanes. #ThisisClimateChange

Disturbing Stanford study finds climate change has reduced global wheat yields about 10%. The world now uses 550M acres to grow wheat, which suggests a swath of nature about the size of Kansas has been cleared to compensate for climate-driven yield losses.
