In other words: there's growing evidence not only that precipitation extremes will increase (in general) due to climate change--but also that the most intense, rarest, & most dangerous rain events will increase faster than more "moderate" extremes. That's...not great!

And while mistakes were surely made in the science advice, it is far too simplistic to say "the scientific advisers got it wrong". Yes, there needs to be independent evaluation, but also consideration of how the advice was itself politically constrained and indeed compromised.

Plus how do you want to be buried? Plan now. Cremation doesn't actually add nearly as much carbon back to the earth as burial in a shroud or biodegradable casket, and plant a tree. Green burials are the best earth-friendly option actually.

Later, if you're sick, faced with difficult situation, you might be willing to accept less than the rich quality you enjoy now. It's hard to predict. We want to make our living wills soon...a friend and her hubby, older, affected by LA fires, have just made theirs.
