But it's also the rheostat to drive (nearly) everything else.<br /><br />The issue isn't so much the wetter versus dryer -- though I will note that the current problem is mostly "much too wet" in the US midwest -- is how erratic things are. If you knew two years ahead, you could plan for it.

Which means more water vapour in the atmosphere, which raises temps somewhat more, which raises humidity which, etc. CO2 is the driver, increased humidity the amplifier.<br /><br />Yes, some places will get dryer after global warming, as wind patterns Mr Wiggleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10819074203230794043noreply@blogger.com
