Florida and Texas are the two states expected to suffer the greatest economic damage from climate change, according to a new study from Science magazine.
The study used a model that aimed to calculate the future impact on each state’s gross domestic product (GDP) from events including hurricanes, storm surges, changes in agricultural yields, changing electricity demands, changes in mortality rates, changes to the labor supply, rising sea levels and rising crime rates.
The study comes amid a concerted effort by climate activists to help the U.S. meet the goals of the Paris Accord of limiting temperature change to below 2 degrees Celsius by reducing greenhouse gas emissions. That goal has been put at risk by President Donald Trump’s decision to withdraw the U.S. from the treaty.

Same in Conroe, Not a single day of AC so far this year, cool at night with very little Humidity. More please.
Amusing drivel based on climate models that have been proved to be false. It is just plain damn crap and lies. This is politics and not science. Government funded science if related to climate is corrupt and political. Basic science funded by government that is not political is still good science.
Unless, of course, we engineer the environment to prevent it.
It is comparatively easy to foster extra warming.....stratospheric release of sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) will increase the greenhouse effect with many many times greater effect than CO2, methane, or even water vapor.
Nice stable gas, stays suspended for long periods of time. A great way to ameliorate an ice age.

We’re in an ice age. We are currently experiencing an interglacial warming called the Holocene Optimum. It’s called an optimum because warm periods are when life flourishes. But the Holocene isn’t as optimum as it could be. The last interglacial was warmer, and that was long before Al Gore had his fleet of SUV’s and private jets.

I have been running at least one gas heater in the back of the house at night with almost no exception for 3-4 weeks.
