Want to learn something about #water and #climate change?
A simple approximation is that for every degree C of warming, the atmosphere holds 7% more water. That's one factor behind the growing number of extreme flooding events.
And climate scientists have been predicting these impacts for literally a half century or more.
The Trump administration's efforts to hide these kinds of basic scientific truths are just fossil-fuel industry propaganda.

@petergleick It's important to realise that this means temperature n+2 gets us 7% additional water on top of the 7% we got in addition to temperature n at temperature n+1. This is not linear growth.

Lo and behold, average economist, compound interest doesn't only work with money.
