(Commentary, including reposted material follows below. Temporarily posted. A BLOGGER NOTE: Though it's a potentially impossible task (as in...some reading would be required), I'm not getting through (here) to a large segment of the U.S. population: Fox "news" viewers. As a quixotic exercise I may attempt a semi-regular column at another, possibly more prominent web platform.. Tentative (partial) column title: "Facts and Friends: Can a fact hurt me?". ..Will provide a link for any interested if/when that happens...P.S. It's important to hear 'the rest of us', Fox "news"-ers: You just lost the midterm elections (in essence). (I know you haven't heard much about that....))

Brief excerpt from the first story above:
"Climate change is already causing more frequent and severe weather across the U.S., and the country is poised to suffer massive damage to infrastructure, ecosystems, health and the economy if global warming is allowed to continue, according to the most comprehensive federal climate report to date....
...."Climate change is already affecting every part of the United States, almost every sector of the United States, be it agriculture or forestry or energy, tourism," says George Mason University professor Andrew Light, who is one of the report's editors. "It's going to hurt cities, it's going to hurt people in the countryside, and, as the world continues to warm, things are going to get worse.""Related 11/23/18 article link: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/climate-change-report-timing-release-al-gore-says-trump-administration-seeks-to-bury-climate-report-2018-11-23/
